DeferredPurchase Agreement
What is a Deferred Purchase Agreement “DPA”?
The DPA is the underlying legal instrument that an investor will invest into when investing into structured investments issued by Sequoia Specialist Investments Pty Ltd (“SSI”).
A deferred purchase agreement, or DPA, is a financial instrument which derives its value from the value of another reference asset such as an index, stock, or commodity. The DPA instrument allows for a lot of flexibility in defining the different terms and conditions of an investment, thereby allowing for a very broad range structured investments to be issued under a DPA. This is one of the key reasons SSI issues structured investments via DPA.
The Units in DPAs are “Securities” for the purposes of Chapter 7 of the Corporations Act.
