ANZ’s Farm Management Deposit Accounts (FMDs)

FMD's are special deposit accounts and savings tools that let you set aside pre-tax income in the good years to establish cash reserves to help meet costs in leaner years. It also is a risk management tool to help deal with uneven income streams due to climate changes and market risks. Subject to conditions, deposits to ANZ FMDs may be deducted from your taxable income in the tax year  the deposit is made. Withdrawals are subject to tax in the tax year that they are made. Any interest received on a deposit is assessed as income in the year that it is earned. Naturally, you should seek independent taxation advice to find out the precise effect on your cash flow, any taxation implications and the appropriate account structure for your specific needs.
