How borrowing works locally

Variable-rate products move with a reference rate, while fixed-rate products set the price for a defined term.

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.
