How borrowing works locally

A secured product gives the lender a claim on a named asset, which is why its price is usually lower than an unsecured equivalent.

Debt management plans are administered by accredited credit counsellors, and they are not loans. Variable-rate products move with a reference rate, while fixed-rate products set the price for a defined term.
