– Lower Rates of Interest Payable on Loans
Some institutions charge interest on the “add on” basis which means that you pay the same interest every month for the life of the loan. We calculate interest on the “reducing balance”. The less you owe, the less interest you pay monthly. This means you enjoy significant saving on interest charges with us.
