Borrowing and business
Borrowing and business.
Prepare the numbers.
A useful borrowing conversation starts with what the money will do, what it costs and how it will be repaid. These are preparation tools, not an approval promise.
Turn an idea into numbers.
- 01
Name the purpose
Write what the money will buy or change and how it will affect income or household needs.
- 02
Build the cost list
Separate equipment, transport, labour, regular costs and your own contribution.
- 03
Estimate cash coming in
Write how repayment money will arrive, when trade is slow and what you will do if plans change.
- 04
Ask for written terms
Request requirements, security or guarantors, pricing, term and additional charges before signing.
Ask about borrowing
- Which product and requirements fit my project?
- Which documents, security or guarantors are needed?
- What written pricing, interest, term and extra charges apply?
- What happens if income is delayed or the project changes?
Having an idea or worksheet is not an approval. Birunga SACCO sets requirements, pricing and decisions after reviewing your information.
