How borrowing works locally

Disclosure requirements mean the cost of borrowing must be stated before an agreement is signed.

A longer amortisation lowers each payment and raises the total interest paid over the life of the loan. A revolving product charges interest on the outstanding balance, while an instalment product charges a fixed schedule of payments.
