The Annual Percentage Rate (APR):

It is the discount rate at which the present value of all payments and instalments that are due from the Borrower, representing the Total Amount Payable by the Borrower, equals the present value of all payments of the Amount of Financing available to the Borrower on the date on which the Financing amount or the first payment thereof is available to the Borrower. This is defined as per Article 81 of Implementing Regulations of the Finance Companies Control Law. In simple terms, APR is computed by adding all the upfront fees, charges and commissions charged from the customers and calculated on an annualized basis. The APR must be calculated and expressed in percentage points with a minimum of two basis points, rounding half basis points to the nearest full basis points.
