Which One Are You
Fees and other charges
Besides interest, a lender may charge a few fees. It helps to know them before you apply, so there are no surprises.
Processing fee
A percentage of the limit plus GST, often somewhere between about 0.5% and 1.5%. It is charged when the limit is sanctioned and again when it is renewed or enhanced.
Annual review or renewal fee
Working-capital limits are reviewed every year. Many lenders charge a renewal or review fee at that point.
Inspection, valuation and legal charges
Where the limit is backed by stock, receivables or property, the lender may charge for inspections, valuations or a legal check.
Penal charges
Going over the sanctioned limit, or not routing enough business through the account, can attract extra interest or charges. Each lender sets its own terms.
These are general guides and every lender sets its own fees. Your expert will share the exact charges in writing before you sign.
