What is a Target Market Determination?
A Target Market Determination (‘TMD’) is a document that explains which people particular financial products may be suitable for (the target market) and sets out any conditions around how financial products can be distributed to consumers.

Why do product issuers provide Target Market Determinations?
TMDs are compulsory for most financial products. TMDs are compulsory for most financial products.
Issuers and distributors of financial products must take reasonable steps that are likely to result in financial products reaching consumers in the target market defined by the product issuer. Canstar takes this responsibility seriously. As a distributor, we periodically review the TMDs of products we list on our website to help ensure our distribution channels are likely to result in the products reaching consumers within the relevant target market. This is one of the reasonable steps we take to comply with our obligations.
We recommend that you consider the TMD before making a purchase decision. Contact the product issuer directly for a copy of the TMD.

Home Loan Star Ratings are updated daily. During periods of significant market fluctuations, such as adjustments to the Reserve Bank's cash rate, Star Rating updates will be paused for variable home loans until the market has stabilised. However, advertised interest rates of products will continue to be updated as advised by lenders. The results don’t include every provider in the market and we may not compare all features relevant to you. Current rates and fees are displayed and may be different from what was rated. You can find a description of the initial sort order below the table. Learn more about our Home Loans Star Rating Methodology. The rating shown is only one factor to take into account when considering products. Rates, features and fees can vary with the size of a deposit, and lenders' minimum deposits range from 2% to 50%. Most of our tables show this full range, but some dedicated pages, such as low deposit home loans, only show loans that are available with a deposit of less than 20%.

The Star Rating in the table might not match your exact inputs. Sometimes the methodology uses profiles with categories or bands, but sometimes a single methodology, without any categories or bands, is applied. The results will show the products that most closely match your selection, based on our profiles. If you are unsure about any terms used in the comparison table, please refer to the glossary.
