Why do we recommend you provide your Tax File Number (TFN)?

It is not mandatory for you to provide your Tax File Number (TFN). However, if you do not provide us with your Australian TFN or TFN exemption reason, withholding tax may be deducted from your interest earnings. Not providing the TFN information might impact you every time you receive distributions or dividends for the securities you hold, or when you earn interest on the cash in your cash account. So, we recommend you provide the TFN information during the QuietGrowth onboarding process.

If you decide to provide the TFN information, you can do so either (a) during onboarding; or (b) while we manage your investments after your QuietGrowth account is created.
