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.

A prepayment privilege allows a borrower to pay more than the scheduled amount, sometimes with a charge attached. A lender may ask for proof of address, and a permanent address is a standard requirement for consumer credit.
