How borrowing works locally

Debt management plans are administered by accredited credit counsellors, and they are not loans.

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