• Multiple Bare Trusts can now be added to the deal to support existing lending as part of the submission 
• You can add multiple collaterals. All new loans in a deal must share a single property collateral, which can also secure any existing loans being refinanced. Any additional properties can be used to secure other existing loans. 
• In Financials and the Deal Summary, new and existing lending are now separated, together with rental income on new and existing priorities 

A New Look for Individual Financials 

When we updated the look for the Financials tab, we knew we had to do the same for Individual Financial Information. 

Now, instead of clicking into a separate page to enter financials for an individual, there is a tab above the Key Parties table, so you can easily switch between Key Parties and Individual Financials without reloading the page. 

We've also streamlined the experience of entering financials so there's less scrolling and less screens to click through. You can enter a total for an entire category, or enter more granular data. You can also easily switch between individuals and households for faster data entry. 

This update includes: 

• New Individual Financials tab within the Individuals tab 
• Updated look and feel for Individual Financials 
• Single view of all financial data for a single individual 
• Ability to add high-level totals for categories or switch to itemised data entry 
• Easily request data from customer with a single click 

Judo lender forms 

We've added Judo's lender forms to the platform. Now, when completing a Judo deal, the data you enter into CitoPlus will be prefilled into the forms. You can also edit the unprefilled fields and send the forms for e-Sign directly from CitoPlus and will be sent digitally to Judo. 

Link guarantees & charges to existing loans 

When adding guarantees and charges, you can now link these to existing loans as well as new loans. 

Simply add an existing loan, then add your guarantee as usual. When adding your guarantee, link it to the existing loan in the Loan field. 

Archive and change owner of a deal 

If you need to: 

• Archive a deal or borrower (so it no longer displays in your  Deal/Borrower List), or 
• Change the owner of a deal (i.e. the broker linked to the deal, whose name appears on the Credit Memorandum) 

Please contact support@citoplus.com.au and we will be happy to help you!

Update to Privacy Policy 

We have made some minor updates to our Privacy Policy, providing more detail about who it applies to, what data we collect and how we utilize AI in the platform. Click here to read it. 

Enhanced Financial Spreading

As part of our updates to SmartFill, we've completely rebuilt how SmartFill extracts and displays data from financial documents. 

Now when you review extracted financials data, you can see a full breakdown of how SmartFill has extracted the data, mapped the categories and calculated totals. You can easily recategorise line items and mark add-backs. If CitoPlus detects a difference between the totals in the document and the extraction, it will automatically adjust the Other line items in the extraction to balance the totals. There is also the option to manually balance.

This update includes:

• Financial auto-spreading post SmartFill extraction, will full reconcilation 
• Auto-balance when mismatch in totals is detected 
• The ability to choose a financials template in SmartFill and apply to the deal 

SmartFill: more capabilities 

We've expanded to identify and extract data related to new lending, commercial properties and tenants.  

Got an old application form? Drop it in and we will extract all the information in one go.  

If you request bank data from your borrower via Illion, SmartFill will extract existing lending data from the statements or simply upload or request documents and let SmartFill do the rest. 

We've also moved the SmartFill button to one place in the deal page so you can always easily find it, no matter the tab you're viewing. 

This update includes: 

• Data extraction from Illion bank statements for existing lending 
• Data extraction that can be added to new loans, collateral and the Commercial Property tab 

New look for the Documents tab 

The Documents tab has a new look! If your deal requires a lot of documents, no longer will you have to scroll endlessly to find what you're looking for. Modelled after a traditional file explorer, there are new tabs for quick navigation and it's super clear what mandatory documents are missing from the deal. 

You can also now request documents from your borrower directly from the Documents tab. 

This update includes: 

• Reconfigured Documents tab with streamlined navigation
• The ability to request borrower/individual documents via the Documents tab 

Add documents and see basic serviceability metrics at the Lead stage 

We've expanded what you can add to a deal during the Lead stage to provide more flexibility in the early days of building out a deal. 

This update includes: 

• The ability to upload documents to a Lead via the Documents tab 
• The ability to request documents from a Borrower during the Lead stage 
• A simplified Deal Summary tab during the Lead stage where you can add financial inputs and serviceability ratios are calculated 

Equipment Finance Loan changes 

When adding an Equipment Finance Loan, you no longer have to add the collateral details as part of creating the loan. You can simply link an existing collateral, or create a collateral and link it later. 

More information available in your Profile 

In the Profile page (navigate here via your name in the top right corner of the platform) we have added a section to display your broker group's information and full list of active users. If you are on the Starter Plan, you can see how many free deals you have remaining. If you are on a paid plan, you have access to the new Billing tab, which displays data requests made for the current month, and other related information. 

SmartFill for Key Parties

We’ve expanded SmartFill to identify and extract data for key individuals and populate this data into your deal. Simply upload your documents and let SmartFill do the rest. 

This update includes: 

• SmartFill button will be available in the Individuals tab

• New loan product in the New Loans table under the Commercial Property category 
• A streamlined Commercial Property tab that displays when Commercial Mid Doc product is added to the deal 
• Streamlined financials template for Commercial Mid Doc deals

Owner-occupied Property Loans

We’ve added a new field to property collateral where you can indicate if the collateral is to be owner-occupied or investment for property loans. Selecting owner-occupied will change the information required for the deal so you only need to provide financials on the property when it will be used for investor purposes. 

This update includes: 

• New Commercial Usage field that displays when a Commercial Property and Residential Property collateral is added to a Business Loan or a Commercial Property Loan. 
• Selecting ‘owner-occupied’ in the Commercial Usage will not display any property cashflow for completion 
• When investor is selected, inputs for commercial property cashflows will be displayed 

Auto-creation of individual borrowers 

Now, when you add a personal guarantor to a deal where the guarantor is not already in the borrowing group, CitoPlus will auto-add the guarantor as an Individual borrower to the borrowing group. 

The same will occur with personal trustees. If you create a trust with a personal trustee, CitoPlus will prompt you to create the personal trustee as an individual borrower.  

If you add a trust with a personal trustee to a deal, the personal trustee will be added to the borrowing group along with the trust. 

Capture individual tax details 

You can now request tax details, including jurisdictions and tax residency, from Individual Borrowers via the Borrowing Group table in the Deal Structure tab. You can also now manually capture these details via the Borrowers tab. 

Additional ID Capture against Key Parties 

When requesting ID verification from a key party, you can now capture: 

• Driver’s License 
• Passport (New!) 
• Medicare Card (New!) 

This provides more verification options for your customers that may not have a valid Driver's License. 

Household creation 

You can now create a household structure to show which individuals are part of the same household via the Individuals tab.  

If CitoPlus detects that two individuals added to the deal are part of the same household (same address and or relationship status), then it will suggest you create a household. 

Once a household is created, you can set the % allocation for each party in the household and also capture joint financials for the household. 

This update includes: 

• Create, edit and remove household structures via the Individuals tab 
• Set split % for individuals in a household 
• Capture joint financials in Individual Financial Information using the new ‘Add Shared’ button

Collateral you enter into the Deal Structure tab will automatically be added to the Commercial Property/Lease Doc tab. Just add tenant details and a settlement date and watch the property cashflow analysis auto-calculate.
