Annualized Interest Rate (AIR)

Annualized Interest rate is calculated based on individual profile such as monthly salary, employer, loan amount, existing debt and other credit parameters.

Interest rate is variable linked to Emirates Interbank Offered Rate (EIBOR) (i.e. EIBOR + fixed margin).

Interest is calculated daily and charged monthly using the following formula:
Outstanding Principal Balance x Interest rate x (1/360) for one day (as we follow 30/360 Basis)

Variable interest rate is linked to EIBOR (The Emirates Interbank Offered Rate) i.e. EIBOR + Fixed Margin.

Variable rate linked to 1-month, 3-month or 6 months will be reviewed monthly, quarterly or half-yearly as per the option selected by you.

Minimum Personal Loan rate called “Floor rate” shall be applicable.

This rate will be applicable only in the case when variable rate based on EIBOR falls below the floor rate.

Equated Monthly Installment (EMI)

EMI is calculated by adding the principal loan amount and total interest and dividing this total by the loan period in months. This is done using reducing balance method which means that as your loan balance reduces, with every Equated Monthly Installment (EMI) payment, the interest portion of your EMI will reduce.

The Equated monthly installment (EMI) will change depending on the actual EIBOR rate on the review date.

ILLUSTRATION: Total Repayments (AED)***

a. Personal Loan Amount	AED 100,000/-
b. Interest Rate	5.50%*
c. Tenure	12 months
d. Interest Amount	AED 3,002/-**
e. Total Repayment Amount (a)+(d)	AED 103,002/-
f. EMI	AED 8,583.50

Interest Rate Calculation:

Total Repayment Amount = Principal + Interest
Interest Amount = Principal × Interest Rate × Tenure

*If the 6-month EIBOR is 1.50% on the review date, then the revised interest rate will be 5.50% (1.50% + 4% Fixed Margin).

**Variable interest rate of 5.5% is equivalent to flat rate of 3% (conversion factor 1.832)

This calculation is tentative and may vary depending on the loan terms and the Bank’s policies

APR (Annual Percentage Rate)

APR is the annual percentage rate which is inclusive of the annual interest rate (based on the reducing balance basis), in addition to the processing fees and insurance premium (if applicable), based on maximum tenure permissible for the product.
Example: As per Illustration reducing interest rate to be assumed at 5.50% p.a. + 0.53% amortized processing fees (1%+VAT over average life tenure of 4 years) = 6.03%

Processing Fees

1.00% of the loan amount in addition to a 5% VAT on the applicable fee (Minimum AED 525/- and maximum AED 2,625/-).
This fee is applicable for processing your loan request. This is one time fee and is charged upfront.

Impact on EMI if EIBOR Changes

If 1-Month EIBOR is	EMI
1.75%	AED 8,594.88 /-
2.00%	AED 8,606.25 /-

Scenario 1: 1 Month EIBOR increases to 1.75 % p.a.
If 1 month EIBOR increases to 1.75 % on review date then revised interest rate will be 5.75% (1.75 % + 4% fixed margin)
Interest amount: Principal X Interest X Tenure = AED 3,138.65
Total repayment = Principal + Interest = AED 103,138.65
EMI = Total Repayment / Tenure =103,138.65/12 = AED 8,594.88

Scenario 2: 1 Month EIBOR increases to 2.00% p.a.
If 1-month EIBOR increases to 2.00 % on review date then revised interest rate will be 6.00% (2.00 % + 4 % fixed margin)
Interest amount: Principal X Interest X Tenure = AED 3,275.11
Total repayment = Principal + Interest = AED 103,275.11
EMI = Total Repayment / Tenure =103,275.11 /12 = AED 8,606.25
