E01: Types of Loans 
03 mins
Loans can be classified into two major types: secured and unsecured. In this video, we’ll explore how these loan types might fit different needs. Secured loans, such as home loans, gold loans, and loans against property, require collateral. These loans often come with specific usage restrictions. For example, a home loan could help you buy, build, or renovate a house. Similarly, a car loan might help you finance a new or used vehicle. Unsecured loans, by contrast, do not require collateral. Personal loans, education loans, and business loans are some examples. A personal loan might give you the flexibility to use the funds for various purposes. Education loans may cover tuition fees and living expenses during your studies. If you’re a business owner, a business loan might help you fund your operations or expand. We’ll also discuss balance transfer loans, which could help lower your interest by switching lenders. A top-up loan might allow you to borrow more once you’ve repaid part of your existing loan. By the end of this video, you might have a clearer understanding of these loans and how they could work for you.

E02: Loan Terms You Must Know
05 mins
Understanding loan terms is essential for better loan management. In this video, we’ll walk you through some key terms related to loans. We’ll begin with the loan amount, which refers to the money you borrow from a lender. The loan tenure, on the other hand, is the period between loan disbursal and the final EMI payment. The interest rate is the percentage charged by your lender for borrowing the loan amount. Collateral is an asset pledged for secured loans. In case of non-payment, this collateral may be seized by the lender. We’ll also cover co-borrowers and co-signers, both of whom share responsibility for the loan but in different ways. You might also encounter terms like grace periods, processing fees, and pre-payment options, all of which could affect your loan. Loan amortisation refers to a repayment schedule, while loan deferment might help if you face financial difficulties. Finally, we'll explain credit appraisal, hard and soft inquiries, and FOIR, which lenders use to assess your loan eligibility. Familiarising yourself with these loan terms could provide clarity and make the borrowing process smoother.

Next, the video will walk you through the process of using an online EMI calculator for your bike loan. Here, you can enter your loan details, i.e., the principal, rate, and tenure, to get an estimate of your EMI, total interest, and total amount payable.

Gold loan repayment options could offer flexibility and help you manage your financial commitments effectively. Choosing the right option might depend on your cash flow and future financial plans.
