Warning to Borrowers: Unsecured personal loans
The following information is specific to unsecured personal loans.
Minimum period for repayment 6 months, maximum period 5 years.
The maximum Annual Percentage Rate (APR) including all fees and charges is 36% for small, shorter term loans. Longer term loans for larger amounts may be available for an APR of 15% or lower.
For example, a $1000 loan over 6 months could require a fortnightly repayment amount of as much as $96.92 including total costs (interest fees and charges) of $260 in addition to the amount that you borrowed.
Secured loans such as home loans, car loans, etc. are usually a much cheaper finance option. The interest rate will be different depending on what you are financing. For example, home loan interest rates will be typically lower than for a car, boat, caravan or truck loan.
