avakrediit

Avakrediit is a term originating from Estonian financial terminology. It translates directly to "open credit" or "availability credit" in English. Essentially, avakrediit refers to a credit line or a facility that a borrower can access as needed, up to a pre-approved limit. This type of credit is characterized by its flexibility, allowing the borrower to draw funds when required and repay them according to agreed-upon terms.

Unlike a traditional installment loan where a fixed amount is disbursed at once, avakrediit provides ongoing access to funds. This can be particularly useful for businesses that experience fluctuating cash flow needs or for individuals who require a reserve for unexpected expenses. The borrower typically pays interest only on the amount of credit that has been drawn, not on the total available limit.

The terms and conditions of an avakrediit, including the credit limit, interest rate, and repayment schedule, are established in a contract between the lender and the borrower. Lenders will assess the borrower's creditworthiness before approving an avakrediit, similar to other lending products. The availability of funds can be a significant advantage for managing short-term financial obligations.
