Factors Affecting YES BANK Personal Loan Interest Rates

• Loan tenure – The tenure of a personal loan can have an impact on the interest rates charged by a bank and it is possible for loans with longer tenures to attract a lower interest rate compared to loans with shorter tenures.
• Repayment capacity –The repayment capacity of an individual is a crucial factor when it comes to determining interest rates. Generally, those with a higher repayment capacity will be charged a lower rate of interest.
• Relationship with YES BANK – Individuals having a good relationship with YES BANK could be in a position to lower their interest rates, on the basis of their past behaviour and personal standing. It is possible for banks to lower interest rates for esteemed customers who have displayed a commitment to their payments in the past.
• Employment details – Interest rates can vary according to the profession of a borrower. It is possible for salaried borrowers to get a lower interest rate compared to self-employed borrowers, thanks to them having a steady source of income. Borrowers with an unstable job history might not always have a steady income source and could end up paying a higher interest rate as the bank could view them as risky prospects.
• Age – It is possible for banks to vary their interest rates depending on the age of a borrower as senior citizens (>60 years) might be charged a lower interest compared to youngsters (<30 years).
• CIBIL score: Your CIBIL score helps the lender assess how likely you are to repay your loan, without defaulting on repayments. Individuals with a good credit score of over 700 will usually be offered a lower rate of interest. Those with low CIBIL scores may be charged a high interest, even if their loan application is approved.
