Special Features
Interest charges on daily reducing balance basis.
Interest deduction on a daily reduction balance basis refers to a method of calculating interest on loans, where the interest is charged on the outstanding principal every day, rather than monthly or annually. This approach can be slightly more complex than other methods, but it offers several advantages:
Lower overall interest expense: Since interest is only charged on the remaining principal balance, you end up paying less interest overall compared to traditional monthly reducing balance methods. This benefit is especially noticeable for shorter loan terms and for loans with large prepayments.
Fairer representation of interest accrual: Daily reduction balance method reflects the true daily accrual of interest, making it a more accurate way to represent the cost of borrowing.
Benefits of early or frequent payments: Any prepayments or additional payments are immediately reflected in the reduced principal balance, leading to immediate interest savings. This is because interest is calculated on the updated daily balance, unlike traditional methods where adjustments happen only at the next payment date.
