-
What is the difference between a linked interest rate and a fixed interest rate?When financing your vehicle, you have the option of having either a linked (variable) interest rate, or a fixed interest rate. A linked interest rate is linked to the prime lending rate, and therefore the monthly instalment could vary during the loan term. Having a fixed interest rate (usually higher than a linked interest rate) means that the monthly instalment remains unchanged for the duration of the agreement.
-
Interest Rate: Linked-rate optionThe linked-rate option provides you with the potential benefits of fluctuating interest rates. In the event that the interest rate increases during the agreement period, your interest rate and therefore your repayments will increase accordingly. The reverse applies if the interest rate decreases during the agreement period: then you will benefit from lower corresponding repayments.
-
Interest Rate: Fixed-rate optionThe fixed-rate option provides you with peace of mind in terms of fluctuating interest rates. In the event that the interest rate increases during the agreement period, your repayments will not be affected and your interest rate will remain the same.
