How borrowing works locally

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

Debt management plans are administered by accredited credit counsellors, and they are not loans. A lender's assessment looks at income, existing obligations, the credit file, and the asset pledged where there is one.
