Consumer loan for Ethiopian Diaspora

Requirements of Consumer Loan for Ethiopian Diaspora

Consumer loan for Ethiopian Diaspora is among Awash Bank’s products devised to address Ethiopian Diaspora Community interests. Loans both under Conventional and Interest Free Banking (IFB) Schemes have the following purposes.

  • For purchase, construction and renovation of residential house/commercial building
  • For purchase of brand new/used car
  • Personal Loan
  • Investment Loan

 

The interest rates for conventional loans and the profit rate for financing under IFB schemes will depend on the modality of equity contribution and the currency in which repayment of the loan will be made. If both the equity contribution and the periodic repayments are made in foreign currency, the interest rate/profit rate will be relatively lower.
