Dear customer, the annual nominal interest rate is the interest rate announced by the financial institution and based on which the amount of interest to be paid by the borrower is calculated.

The effective annual interest rate shows how much the nominal annual interest rate would be if the latter included all mandatory fees for loan origination and servicing.

Loan interest is calculated on the loan balance, based on the nominal interest rate.

The interest amount of the loan is calculated: Loan amount * interest rate / number of months (or number of days).

For example, in the case of a loan of 1,000,000 AMD with an annual interest rate of 12% and a repayment period of 12 months, the average monthly interest payment will be: 1,000,000*0.12/12=10,000 AMD.

The actual monthly interest amount depends on the repayment schedule of the loan, but cannot exceed the average amount presented above.

The actual annual interest rate shows how much the loan will cost for the client in case of making all mandatory payments for the provision and servicing of the loan within the specified terms and amounts.

The calculation is based on the following formula:

where:

A – initial loan amount

n – serial number of the loan repayment sum

N – serial number of the last payment aimed at repaying the loan

Kn – the amount of the nth payment aimed at repaying the loan

Dn – the period from the date of loan issuance to the nth repayment, in days

i – annual effective interest rate

The Essence of Credit History and Its Importance:

A credit history represents a person's credit behavior, including existing and repaid loans, and guarantees provided by that individual. It encompasses the totality of information regarding the fulfillment of the client's financial obligations, which is collected, accumulated, and regularly updated by both individual lenders and the Credit Bureau (ACRA). In other words, a credit history shows how well the client has met and continues to meet their financial commitments.

It contains information about the client's loans, repayments, guarantees given to other individuals, any overdue loans, as well as penalties and fines imposed for late payments.

How to Change an Incorrect or Incomplete Credit Report:

If a borrower's credit history contains incorrect or incomplete information, the borrower may request clarification and correction in accordance with Article 20 of the RA Law "On Circulation of Credit Information and Activities of Credit Bureaus." The borrower can notify the credit bureau or contact the credit information provider directly (the source of the credit information). This can be done by submitting a written application to the credit bureau or electronically via the online platform, My ACRA. The process for accepting, reviewing, and responding to complaints about credit reports provided by ACRA is outlined in the "Dispute Resolution Procedure" of ACRA Credit Reporting CJSC.

The Essence of Credit SCORE:

CARD AgroCredit UCO CJSC conducts credit analysis when considering loan applications, resulting in a SCORE assessment. The score is a comprehensive evaluation based on statistical methods and an analysis of the client's available information. Based on this score, the possible credit limit, loan term, and other loan conditions are determined.

• https://acra.am/

The Type of SCORE Used and the Main Factors Affecting It:

CARD AgroCredit UCO CJSC uses its own scoring system, which is based on a comprehensive review of data derived from financial and economic analyses, as well as other social and environmental risks. In addition, it uses scoring calculators provided by the ACRA credit bureau.

The main factors influencing the customer's SCORE rating include:

• The number and amount of loans received
• The number and amount of guarantees provided
• History of loan repayments
• Types of loans received
• Number of new loan applications submitted
• Number and type of ACRA requests

It is important to note that credit history inquiries can impact the credit SCORE, potentially lowering the score, which in turn can affect the loan decision and result in a negative outcome.

How to Improve Your Credit History and SCORE:

To improve your credit history and SCORE, it is essential to avoid delays in loan repayments by adhering to the established schedule. Paying off or reducing outstanding loan obligations, decreasing the number of loans to ease the credit burden, and reducing the number and amount of guarantees given are also recommended. Additionally, fully repaying any overdue obligations will help improve your credit standing. Even if a client has a bad credit history, it can be improved with responsible behavior in future loan transactions. Therefore, to prevent deterioration of credit history and improve your SCORE, avoid even one-day delays in payments, fully settle any overdue loans, refrain from becoming a guarantor for unreliable individuals, and reduce your credit burden where possible.
