HSBC Loan-AsYouGo

It takes more than money to secure your child’s education.

Pay for your child’s GEMS Education school fees with HSBC Loan-AsYouGo

It takes more than money to secure your child’s education. But when it comes to money, we’ve got you covered. To pay their school fees each term, you might borrow a lump sum at the beginning of the school year. And you would have had to pay interest for the entire amount all that time as well. But not anymore.

 

While you take care of your child’s best interest, we’ll take care of your saving on interest. Introducing the new HSBC Loan-AsYouGo, a flexible borrowing solution that allows you to split your loan into smaller portions to match school term fee payments2. We'll even make the payments to your school for you every term while you re-pay the loan instalments every month. It's the smart choice.

This illustration is based on a Premier customer – working for a listed company with HSBC and transferring their salary to HSBC – taking out a personal loan of AED 100,000 for 10 months at a 9.99% annual percentage rate. Annual Percentage Rate quoted is based on reducing rate which is fixed throughout the loan tenor, and is inclusive of 1% arrangement fee amortized over the maximum loan tenor of 12 months. Interest is calculated on the basis of a 365 day calendar year and accrues daily. We apply the interest rate to your Loan balance as it reduces each month (i.e. as you pay each scheduled instalment).

You may have to pay penalties if you pay off a loan/financing early.

If you do not meet the repayments/payments on your loan/financing, your account will go into arrears. This may affect your credit rating, which may limit your ability to access financing in the future.

Refinancing your loans/financing may take longer to pay off than your previous loan/financing and may result in paying more in interest/profit.
