CDF Sydney exclusively services a range of Catholic Entities including Parishes, Schools, Agencies, Chaplaincies, Religious Institutes, Clergy and any entity that falls within the definition of an “Associate” under the Corporations Act 2001 (Act) Exemption Instrument 2016/813 (Wholesale Charitable Investment Fundraising) and an “Affiliate” under the Banking Exemption No. 1 of 2017 of the Banking Act 1959.
CDF Sydney does not and will not offer, issue or sell products to individual retail investors who are not Associates and Affiliates, and as such, its products are not retail products and are therefore not available to the general public.
The Catholic Development Fund is built around the simple philosophy that we all benefit through the pooling of Church funds rather than depositing directly in multiple places with the for-profit banking system.
The CDF has always provided exceptional service along with a tailored and flexible range of financial products and services suited to the needs of the Church across the Archdiocese of Sydney.
The CDF’s current account is a general operating account capable of receiving deposits, issuing cheques, receiving electronic credits and transacting online.
The CDF’s Cash Management Account is an “on-call” investment account with an attractive interest rate.
A CDF Fixed Term Deposit is perfect if you need an investment where you know exactly what interest you will receive and when to expect it and don’t require regular access to your money.
CDF Online is a convenient system that allows you to access your account 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
