Licence held by City Pacific Cancelled by ASIC

City Pacific Financial services wind-up underway

On 25 June 2009, investors in the former City Pacific First Mortgage Fund (now known as the Pacific First Mortgage Fund) voted to remove City Pacific as responsible entity of the fund, and replace it with Trilogy Funds Management. This was followed by orders from the Federal Court of Australia to wind up City Pacific in August.

A statement from ASIC said the decision was made after discussions with the liquidators of City Pacific to ensure the timing of the cancellation would not adversely affect investors in the City Pacific Income Fund (the remaining managed investment scheme operated by City Pacific).
Last May, the Income Fund's auditor KPMG expressed ''significant doubt about the recoverability'' of the money. Seems hard to imagine how ASIC could now do anything to ''adversely impact'' City Pacific investors.
City Pacific remains the responsible entity of a smaller managed investment scheme known as the City Pacific Income Fund. Under the Corporations Act, ASIC has the power to suspend or cancel an AFS Licence if the responsible entity holding the licence is placed into liquidation.

10 tips for Buying Bank acquired  Repo Property 1) Whether you’re buying a home to live in Australia or you’re buying an investment property to let out, you need to check the property in light of your expectations of it and for it.  I.e., if you’re going to be living in it, is it located in a neighbourhood that suits you, if you’re going to be renting it out, does it have the space you need, does it match your target rental market’s requirements for it? 2) Find out what the Bank value of the home is – and focus on this.  Is this a value you are comfortable paying for the property – could it be worth a lot more than the listed price? 3) Scrutinize the state of the property externally and internally.  Look at everything from the foundations to the roof, from the electrics to the plumbing.  Is there dry rot?  Termite damage?  Will you need to redecorate or renovate?  Factor in all of the extra costs you will incur if you are successful in yo...
