If you are looking for a personal loan where you have the comfort of knowing exactly what you'll be repaying each month, then you could do well to consider a fixed rate loan.

Available as a secured loan, you'll know exactly where you stand as - for a set initial period - your monthly repayments stay the same even if general interest rates go up or down.

This offers you the ability to pay a fixed amount each month for a set number of months. This type of loan is referred to as a short term fixed rate loan.

Short term fixed rate loan - this is where you pay a fixed monthly repayment for the first part of your loan period and then, subsequently, pay the lender's variable rate of interest.

The length of time for your 'fixed' monthly payments will vary depending on the length of your overall loan, but is likely to be the first 12, 36, 60 months or the full duration of your loan depending on what loan you select.

A variable rate is likely to appeal if you feel that interest rates will remain the same or fall over the period of your loan.
