Personal loans in New Brunswick

Personal loans in New Brunswick sit inside two sets of rules at once: the provincial licensing that governs consumer credit, and the federal ceiling that applies to a licensed payday regime.

Read the personal loan description with the New Brunswick position attached: the product terms come from the lender, and the licensing rules come from the province.

What this product does

Personal loans: A fixed sum repaid on a schedule, usually unsecured, for almost any purpose a lender will accept.

A personal loan is usually unsecured, which means the lender prices the file on income, obligations and credit history rather than on an asset it can seize.

Prepayment terms vary, and some agreements allow extra payments while others attach a charge.

Repayment is by instalments, and the schedule sets how much of each payment is interest and how much is principal.
