3. Personal Loan Borrowing Power Calculator Disclaimer & Assumptions: The output shown by the borrowing power calculator is based on the information you have entered and is subject to the calculator assumptions set out below. It is for illustrative purposes only. The information provided is not an offer of credit and your borrowing power amount may vary once you have completed a loan application. The calculations should not be relied upon for the purpose of making a decision whether to apply for a personal loan.
The calculator does not take into account a lending establishment fee that maybe charged for a personal loan application.
Length of month: All months are assumed to be of equal length. When you are approved for a personal loan, interest will be charged on the number of days in each month.
Number of weeks & fortnights in a year: One year is assumed to contain exactly 52 weeks or 26 fortnights. This assumes that a year has 364 days rather than the actual 365 or 366.
Rounding of amount of each repayment: This calculator does not round the repayment amount to the nearest cent, as it would for an approved personal loan. This assumption allows for a smooth graph and equal repayment amounts.
Interest Rate: The interest rates represented on this page are standard interest rates and exclude any package or promotional discounts and are subject to change. Please note our personalised pricing means your personal loan interest rate may vary from the interest rate represented on this page.
**Personalised rates: The rate for some customers is based on personalised pricing. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, personalised pricing allows us to offer more people personal loans at a better rate, based on an assessment of credit history as well as the information provided in the application.
