Personal loan
1/13
A personal loan is an unsecured loan that requires no collaterals. The absence of collateral in personal loans leads lenders to take a cautious approach while evaluating personal loan applicants. Lenders consider multiple factors, such as credit scores, monthly income, occupation profiles, and employer profile, among others, of the applicants to evaluate creditworthiness. You could apply for a personal loan if you need money for emergency purposes such as sudden and uninsured medical expenses, situations arising out of job loss, and so on. Be cautious though; interest rates on personal loans are high.
