Definitions:

Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is the total cost of the credit expressed as an annual percentage. It represents the actual yearly cost of credit over the loan term. The APR will vary depending on the loan amount and term.

1. Annual Percentage Rate Representative (APR Representative) is the advertised rate (or a lower rate) we reasonably expect at least 51% of people who are accepted for and enter into the loan agreement will pay.

1. Fixed: The interest rate is fixed for the term of the loan and agreed at the outset. Interest charges are calculated at the outset of the agreement based on the amount of credit, the interest rate and term of the agreement.

How do we determine the Representative example?

In order to ensure that the example above is truly representative, Northridge carry out the following review a minimum of twice yearly:

• Term: On all approved applications during previous 12 month period, we use the average (‘mean’) term (rounded to nearest month).
• Loan amount: On all approved applications during previous 12 month period, we use the average (‘mean’) credit amount (rounded to nearest £500).
• Rate: On basis that loan is sourced directly from Northridge (ie not via a credit broker), we use the maximum APR payable at the time of review.

Using the above average loan amount and term, along with the maximum APR we have calculated the representative example above.
