How Loans Are Processed In Singapore?

Loans are called as quick cash, which helps the borrowers in many ways but to get them approved you need to pass through different steps. With the popularity of internet and advent of electronic commerce, you could see quick personal loans online being expedited by different financial institutions.

The below is the list of steps involved in passing the Singapore personal loans.

Let’s check them out:

The pre- qualification: Pre-qualification starts before your actual loan processing begins, which happens to be the first thing to go with the moment the borrower inquires from the bank or any other financial institution. At this stage, the lender will determine the amount of money the borrower can afford to pay back and in what terms. Different loan packages could give you different loan amounts, however, this would depend on the fact whether you fit into this option or not. The best way to know the exact requirements of pre-qualification is to directly call the lending company (banks) and inquire or check their websites.

The loan application: This is where you start the process of applying for any loan at the banks. Once you apply, after 1 to 5 days the loan is approved. The borrowers usually complete the entire loan application along with the required supporting documents for quicker approval. You need to pay some amount as processing fees and insurance of the PDCs, which is often discussed before you apply for the loan.

The processing: In this step, the legal cash lender will go through the credit report of the borrower and carry out few verifications regarding the past payment record and debt history. This will allow the bank to know whether the applicant is clean in these things, which helps them deciding whether or not they should lend the requested loan to the borrower.

Underwriting: This stage is evident once the processing is done, which takes 2-3 weeks wherein the credibility of borrower is checked. The underwriter has the responsibility of making few considerations over the loan package, which is delivered by the loan processor. He is the one man who will decide whether the loan has to be approved or not. Also, this is the very stage wherein the bank or the financial institution would decide whether they require more supporting documents or not.

The loan insurance: This is required when the borrower fails to pay 20 percent of the total amount, which acts like a down payment. If this happens, the loan application is moved to the private loan guaranty insurer who is going to offer extra amount of insurance provided there is any default from the borrowers’ end.

The pre-closing: This stage comes when all the above steps are completed. At this step, you would see a closing date of your loan is getting scheduled, which happens when all your loan application and supporting documents are approved.

Closing: This could be called as the meritorious day for the loan application since this is the very day when the lender finally hands over the loan money to the borrowers.
