A personal loan is an unsecured instalment loan that you can use for pretty much whatever you want. You can use it to finance a medical emergency, a family holiday or even that new laptop you’ve been eyeing. There are more specialized loan products available if you need to finance your renovation or education.

Here are some qualifying criteria you must fulfill:

• Singaporean/PR or foreigners may apply for a personal loan
• Age between 21-65

You can borrow anywhere from 2-6x your monthly income up to a cap of $200,000.

The tenures for personal loans can range from 1 to 7 years. The longer your tenure the lower your monthly payments but the more interest you incur.

Some banks charge a fixed processing fee and other banks charge up to 3% of the approved loan amount.

These are the documents you will need to submit:
