Our obligations before providing credit to you:

We're obligated by law to only provide you with credit or increase your credit limit on an existing credit contract, if it is not unsuitable for you.

For this reason, before we provide you with credit or increase your credit limit on an existing credit contract, we will make an assessment to ascertain that:

You can meet your financial obligations without substantial hardship. We will presume that, if you could only comply with your financial obligations by selling your principal place of residence, this will comprise substantial hardship, unless the contrary is proved; and

The contract will meet your requirements and objectives. We will therefore:

  • Make reasonable inquiries about your financial situation, and your requirements and objectives; and
  • Take reasonable steps to verify your financial situation.

You can, within 7 years of the date of the loan contract or credit limit increase, ask for a written copy of our credit assessment of your application. We are not required to provide you with a copy of your assessment if your application is declined or you decide not to proceed with the application.
