*APR stands for Annual Percentage Rate
**Interest will be charged on your loan from the date of your first draw down and continue to be added to your loan balance on a quarterly basis. By deferring your repayments for 12 months you will pay more interest over the term of your loan than you would if you had commenced repayments from the outset.
Cost of Loan example: Loan repayments are deferred for the first 12 months but interest will apply on loan balance from the date of first drawdown. The indicative cost based on variable rate of 5.6% APR assuming drawdown of the full amount of €14,000 with deferral of the first 12 months’ repayments and full capital & interest repayments for the following 48 months (from month 13) would be €343.70 per month for 48 months. Total amount repayable of €16,497.60. Total cost of credit €2,497.60.
