How borrowing works locally

Joint applications combine two incomes and two sets of obligations in the same assessment.

A revolving product charges interest on the outstanding balance, while an instalment product charges a fixed schedule of payments. A provincial regulator publishes licensing requirements, and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada publishes the list of provincial and territorial regulators.
