How borrowing works locally

A provincial regulator publishes licensing requirements, and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada publishes the list of provincial and territorial regulators.

A secured product gives the lender a claim on a named asset, which is why its price is usually lower than an unsecured equivalent. A prepayment privilege allows a borrower to pay more than the scheduled amount, sometimes with a charge attached.
