How borrowing works locally

A consumer proposal or a bankruptcy is administered by a licensed insolvency trustee rather than by a lender.

A prepayment privilege allows a borrower to pay more than the scheduled amount, sometimes with a charge attached. A lender's assessment looks at income, existing obligations, the credit file, and the asset pledged where there is one.
