Payment to investors
All InvestSMART members are able to monitor their accumulating trailing commissions through the Accumulated Trails table.
50% of accumulating trails greater then the $300 per year will be paid to a member on the anniversary of their InvestSMART membership. Accumulating trails will be automatically ruled off on the anniversary of each member's membership.
If the payout amount is less than $25, members will not receive a cheque that year and their balance will be automatically credited to the following year's payout amount.
Members will receive their cheques in the mail within 30 days following automatic rule off. Upon payment, the Accumulated Trails table will be reset to zero and past payments will be recorded within the Past Payouts section of My TrailCap.
Payout amounts may be classified as assessable income, as they are a return of income derived from an investment. Members should ask their accountant how such payout may affect their tax position.
