Bad Credit Loans

Credit which is available to those individuals who have a poor credit history. A bad credit loan does not have lending criteria as favourable as those in a regular loan, as the lending institution must protect itself from the risk of loaning to an individual who may not uphold their end of the agreement.

Commonly, a bad credit loan will involve multiple lenders, to spread the risk thin, among a larger group of institutions. The down payment and annual percentage rate for bad credit loans will usually directly reflect the credit history of the individual, as these loans are usually created to reflect the specific situation of the person taking out the loan.

Bad credit loans are frequently much more difficult to achieve than loans for people whose credit history is in good standing.
