    ARPA regulates banks. Pepper, Liberty, Bluestone and many others are not banks.

    However all credit activity is regulated by ASIC, so there are still some constraints on the 'non-banks'.

    These lenders offer an 'offset redraw'. It's a redraw facility dressed to look like an offset account.

    If you have no borrowing capacity with them, then how are you going to get equity out of the Big 4?

    This will shock many, but releasing equity actually means borrowing money.

    Here!
    Does that affect the tax rules? Will the ATO say no that's contaminated money because it's technically not a real offset?
