📚 Understanding This Interest Type
Fixed Per-Loan Interest
The interest rate applies ONCE to the entire loan amount, regardless of how long the loan is for. This is NOT tied to time - it's a fixed percentage charge for the service of lending.
✅ How It Works
- • Rate is agreed once for the loan
- • Time does NOT change interest
- • K100 @ 50% = K50 interest (always)
- • Duration only splits payments
🎯 Common Uses
- • Microfinance institutions
- • Mobile money loans
- • Emergency/quick loans
- • Short-term lending
💡 Key Difference from Annual:
With annual interest, a 12% rate for 1 month = 1% interest (K1). With fixed interest, a 50% rate = 50% interest (K50) regardless of whether it's 1 week or 3 months.
