Inflation affects the economy in many ways, and borrowers often wonder how it influences their loan repayments. Rising prices can impact interest rates, monthly EMIs, and the overall cost of borrowing.
At Vizzve Finance, we help you understand the relationship between inflation and loans so you can make informed financial decisions.
What is Inflation?
Inflation is the general increase in prices of goods and services over time, reducing the purchasing power of money. Central banks may adjust interest rates to manage inflation.
How Inflation Affects Loan Repayments
Interest Rate Changes: Central banks may increase policy rates to curb inflation, leading to higher floating interest rates on loans.
Fixed vs. Floating Rates: Fixed-rate loans remain constant, but floating-rate loans may see rising EMIs during inflation.
EMI Burden: Inflation can erode your income’s purchasing power, making EMIs feel costlier.
Loan Tenure Impact: Inflation may extend the perceived burden of repayments if income growth lags behind inflation.
Tips to Manage Loan Repayments During Inflation
Opt for fixed-rate loans to lock in stable EMIs.
Consider prepaying your loan when possible to reduce interest burden.
Maintain a budget factoring in inflation impacts on expenses.
Increase your income sources to match rising living costs.
Consult with lenders like Vizzve Finance for restructuring options if needed.
