Advances: A borrower must ensure that he has some flexibility to make advances (early repayment of credit) without additional costs being incurred if possible. However, advances are only allowed at the end of interest periods, which avoids the payment of termination fees and, in most cases, is in the best interest of the borrower. Particular attention should be paid to all mandatory instalments (e.g. B in the case of sale or, in the case of private companies, to a float) and all advance costs to be paid. Revolving credit accounts typically have a simplified credit application and agreement process as non-revolving credits. Non-revolving loans – such as private loans and mortgages – often require a larger demand for credit. These types of credit typically have a more formal credit agreement process.
