The interest rate offered by OCBC is relatively high compared to other lenders. It Is currently at 3.45% annually and the
processing fee is around 2%. This of course is very high when compared to other lenders. This loan is available to
borrowers which earn S$30,000 annually and above. This of course is advantageous for low-income earners. Note that
interest charged by OCBC is also high for borrowers with lower-income and thus the personal loan offered by the bank has
very high interest rates which are 3.5% p.a and EIR of 8.27% p.a
Loans from OCBC would usually incur an initial fee of 2% which is usually equivalent to S$200. This is definitely higher
than fees from other lenders. But for lower income earners, you can expect to have a lower processing fee of about
S$100. In addition borrowers would still have to pay 3% of the credit amount as partial or full repayment. Lastly, late
payment fees attract a fine of S$80.
