How borrowing works locally

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.

Debt management plans are administered by accredited credit counsellors, and they are not loans. Interest on a line of credit accrues only on the drawn portion, not on the unused limit.
