How borrowing works locally

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

A revolving product charges interest on the outstanding balance, while an instalment product charges a fixed schedule of payments. Debt management plans are administered by accredited credit counsellors, and they are not loans.
