Frequently Asked Questions
What is the prime lending rate?
The prime lending rate is the baseline interest rate that South African banks use to lend money to customers. Your personal rate is usually prime plus or minus a percentage.

Interest is typically calculated on the declining principal balance of your loan. As you pay off the capital, the interest portion of your monthly installment decreases.
Does this include initiation fees?
