Wedding and Major Life Events

From securing the perfect venue to managing catering, wedding expenses can escalate quickly. While these costs can become a source of stress, casting a shadow over the joyous occasion, choosing the best personal loan can ensure these milestone moments are as memorable and grand as envisioned. It is essential, though, to approach this with a plan and spend responsibly. A loan may provide the means, but prudent financial management ensures these special moments remain joyful without lingering financial worries.

Emergency Expenditures

Accidents, sudden illnesses, or required medical procedures can occur without warning. Even with comprehensive health insurance, there might be deductibles or treatments that aren't entirely covered. When these situations arise, the associated costs can be daunting, especially if they fall outside your monthly budget or exhaust your emergency funds.

 

During a financial emergency, applying for a personal loan can be a viable option. Personal loans, especially with trusted banks like CIMB that offer fast approval and transparent interest rates ensures that you can access funds promptly. This speed is crucial during emergencies, where every moment counts.

Postgraduate Education

Pursuing postgraduate studies, be it a Master's degree or a Ph.D., can significantly enhance one's expertise, opening doors to specialised fields and high-demand roles.

 

However, the costs associated with postgraduate studies, including tuition, research materials, living expenses, and international exposure, may be steep. While scholarships and sponsorships are excellent avenues to mitigate these costs, they're often limited and competitive. In this case, students too can consider personal loans to cover these expenses and opt for a flexible repayment structure that aligns with their future earning potential.

Small Business Ventures

Whether it’s running a craft shop, a tech start-up, or a freelance venture, these endeavours often require initial capital. Personal loans can be a lifeline in this scenario, providing the necessary funds for initial investments in equipment, marketing and more. These loans can also aid in managing cash flow during unpredictable early stages, ensuring smooth operation. With careful planning, personal loans can effectively support and nurture your entrepreneurial aspirations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What are the eligibility requirements for CIMB Personal Loan?

You are eligible to apply if you are a Singapore citizen, Singapore Permanent Resident (PR) or Malaysian (non-PR), between the ages of 21 and 70. If you are a Singapore citizen or Singapore PR, you should also have a minimum annual income of S$20,000. If you are a Malaysian (non-PR), you should have a minimum annual income of S$30,000. By meeting these requirements, you may access the various benefits of a CIMB Personal Loan, which includes competitive interest rate, a generous line of credit and flexible monthly repayment options best tailored to your personal financing needs, and more. 

What is the maximum loan amount that I can apply for?

Your borrowing capacity with a CIMB Personal Loan depends on your annual income in Singapore. You can apply for:

 

  • A loan up to 2x your monthly income if your annual income is between S$20,000 to S$29,999

  • A loan up to 4x your monthly income if your annual income is between S$30,000 to S$119,999

  • A loan up to 8x your monthly income if your annual income exceeds S$120,000

 

Please note that the final approval of the loan amount is at the Bank's discretion, with the minimum unsecured loan amount being S$2,000 and the maximum being S$200,000.

Why is the Interest rate (flat interest rate) different from the Effective Interest Rate?

The flat interest rate is calculated based on the assumption that the loan principal remains constant throughout the loan tenure. It helps determine the total interest payable on your personal loan.

 

The Effective Interest Rate, on the other hand, takes into account the reducing principal balance over the loan tenure, and any upfront processing fee charged. Thus, the EIR tends to be higher than the flat interest rate as it gives a true picture of the cost of borrowing.

How can I find out the estimated monthly repayment amount?

You can use the loan repayment calculator in the online application form to estimate your monthly repayments for your low interest personal loan. However, please note that the final approved loan amount is at the Bank's discretion.

Why am I seeing a different interest rate and fee for the personal loan during my application?

The interest rates and processing fees offered to each customer are personalized based on the customer’s personal credit and income profile (subject to the Bank’s discretion), as well as the tenure selected. As such, it may differ from the published rates. The interest rates and fees applicable to you will be provided to you in the loan offer during your application process. 

Do I need to provide any documents for the application of personal loan with CIMB?

If you are Singaporean or Singaporean PR (more than 3 years residency) holding SingPass and applying with MyInfo, no additional documents are needed during the Personal Loan application process with CIMB. However, we may request additional documentation if necessary for your unsecured loan.

 

For Malaysians (Non-PR), you will need to provide the following supporting documents in the application
