How borrowing works locally

Payment history is reported to credit agencies, and that record is what builds or damages a credit file over time.

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 longer amortisation lowers each payment and raises the total interest paid over the life of the loan.
