How borrowing works locally

A broker arranges credit but does not lend, and the lender remains the party that makes the decision.

A longer amortisation lowers each payment and raises the total interest paid over the life of the loan. A consumer proposal or a bankruptcy is administered by a licensed insolvency trustee rather than by a lender.
