How borrowing works locally

A credit file is compiled by private agencies from information lenders and other creditors report.

Provincial licensing decides who may lend, and federal rules add a ceiling where a licensed payday regime exists. A lender is free to set its own price below the legal ceiling, and it does so according to the risk it reads in the file.
