The Foundation for Safe and Responsible Lending

Consumer installment loans, long considered the foundation for safe and responsible lending, are in vogue again. This proven money management practice for personal debt is based on sound financial principles and good insight into human nature.

Personal installment loans are a transparent, affordable and disciplined form of credit which helps consumers meet important economic needs. In critical circumstances, these loans also help smooth out income fluctuations and disruptions from unexpected events like car repairs or medical expenses. An installment loan provides a properly structured and timely repayment schedule based on an individual’s actual ability to pay. It also inherently creates the satisfaction associated with achieving important financial goals through the practice of personal responsibility.
