Investment Loan

This calculator helps illustrate the effect of using a loan to purchase an investment or appreciable asset. Using debt as leverage to purchase investments can magnify your return. The downside is that you also increase your risk. For example, if your investment were to lose all of its value you would not only have lost your investment but you would still owe the balance on the loan.

While every effort has been made to provide reliable interactive calculators, ThinkAdvisor does not guarantee their accuracy. Data inputs of numerical values are hypothetical and for illustration purposes only. Data outputs may not be used to predict or project actual investment results. Where rates of return are shown, they are not representative of any particular investment.
