How borrowing works locally

A prepayment privilege allows a borrower to pay more than the scheduled amount, sometimes with a charge attached.

Disclosure requirements mean the cost of borrowing must be stated before an agreement is signed. A revolving product charges interest on the outstanding balance, while an instalment product charges a fixed schedule of payments.
