Fixed Interest Campaign!
For applications until August 31, 2025!
4.0% fixed interest for the first 10 years of the loan, with an APR of 4.13%!
Applicable for Home Purchase loans in Lek and Euro!
EXAMPLE:
Loan amount 8,000,000 Lek
Loan term 30 years
Interest 4% for the first 10 years with an APR of 4.13%
The loan installment for the first 10 years is 38,193 Lek to be paid monthly (includes principal and interest)
If the client receives their salary in Raiffeisen Bank, after the first 10 years, the interest will be the 12-month Treasury Bill variable annually + 1.8%
Assuming the Treasury Bill rate remains as it is currently, the loan interest will be: 2.78% + 1.8% = 4.58% The loan installment calculated with this interest for the following years will be 40,147 Lek
The total amount payable for the loan of 8,000,000 Lek is 14,218,415 Lek.
Borrowing in a currency different from the one in which income is generated involves significant risks. For example, if your income is in Lek and you take a loan in Euro, an increase in the Euro exchange rate would cause difficulties in your ability to repay the loan as the installment value would increase. These difficulties could lead to failure to repay the loan and deterioration of status to "problematic," up to the initiation of mandatory execution procedures by the bank.
*Borrowing is a financial commitment with costs. Be fully informed before deciding.
Applicable only for Home Purchase loans in Lek and Euro!
