(b) each Loan must be at least Ringgit Malaysia One Thousand (RM1,000) (or such other amount as the Bank may determine); and
(c) each Loan must be for business purposes only and not for personal use.
3.4 Once a Loan is approved and disbursed, the corresponding amount will be deducted from your available Credit Limit and this amount will be made available again as described in Clause 1.7 above. Any applicable fees and charges will be deducted before the Loan is disbursed.
3.5 Each loan will be deposited into your GX Biz Account, and a corresponding loan account will be created for each Loan drawn ("Loan Account").
3.6 You will receive an email confirmation for every successful Loan drawdown. This email will include the details of the Loan (“Loan Details”) and shall be read together with the GX Biz FlexiLoan Specific Terms to form the complete documentation for the Loan drawdown.4.
4.1 The Bank will charge you interest on each successful Loan drawdown, from the date you first make the drawdown until you have repaid the Loan in full, at the interest rate as set out in your Loan Details.
4.2 Interest on your FlexiLoan accrues daily and is calculated based on the actual number of days that have passed, using either a 360-day or 365-day year, or as may be determined by us in accordance with applicable market practice.
4.3 The Bank has sole discretion to determine the interest rate applicable to each Loan drawn.
4.4 You agree to pay the interest charged on every Loan that you draw down, as part of the monthly installment payment of your Loan.
4.5 If the drawdown date and the first Installment Date for a Loan do not fall on the same day, an odd day interest (“ODI”) will be charged on the first Installment Date. ODI is calculated daily based on a 365-day year, from the drawdown date of the Loan up to the day before the first Installment Date (both days inclusive). On the first Installment Date, your payment of the first monthly instalment will be applied first to cover the ODI amount, with the remaining funds used to reduce the principal amount of the Loan. If the drawdown date and the first Installment Date are the same, ODI will not apply.
4.6 If you do not comply with your repayment obligations, we may charge you a different interest rate as set out in Clause 7 (Late Payment and Late Charges) below. Interest will continue to be payable up to the date of actual payment, both before and after any judgment that may begiven in respect of your performance of your obligations.
5.1 Each Loan granted to you shall be repaid in equal monthly instalments (“EMI”) over its selected tenure and each monthly instalment shall be a fixed amount consisting of both principal and interest.
5.2 For each monthly instalment of a Loan, the Bank shall apportion the monthly instalment to the interest amount due and principal amount due for that specific month.
5.3 The monthly instalment amount and the monthly Installment Date will be stated in the Loan Details for each Loan drawn. We may change the monthly installment amount and tenure of a Loan at any time by providing you twenty-one (21) days’ prior notice.
5.4 For the drawdown of your first Loan, you may select your preferred monthly repayment date(except for the 1st to the 3rd day of a month). The monthly repayment date for subsequent Loans will follow the monthly repayment date for the first Loan.
5.5 If the repayment date selected (e.g. 31st day) does not exist in a certain month (e.g. February),the Installment Date for that month would automatically fall on the last day of that month (e.g.28th day).
5.6 You agree to pay the full amount of the monthly instalment due in respect of a Loan each month by the monthly Installment Date (as stated in the Loan Details notified to you) throughout the tenure of the Loan, or until the Loan and all interest and other monies payable under the Loan have been fully repaid. If you fail to pay the monthly instalment amount in full when due, you may be liable to pay late charges as set out in Clause 7 (Late Payment and Late Charges)below.
5.7 Upon disbursement of a Loan into your GX Biz Account , the interest charges will start and EMI in respect of the Loan are payable even if you do not transfer the funds out of your GX Biz Account or utilize the funds to make any payments.
5.8 All monthly installments in respect of a Loan shall be paid within the GX App from your GX Biz Account to the corresponding Loan Account of the Loan, or such other channels that we may make available to you from time to time.
5.9 If you opt to enable the auto-debit function, on the monthly repayment date, the funds in your GX Biz Account will be deducted with the EMI and used to repay the amount due for that specific month. The auto debit function will only work if you have sufficient funds in your GX Biz Account to cover your instalment(s). If you do not have sufficient funds in your GX Biz Account, the auto debit will be rejected and you are responsible to manually perform fund transfer(s)from your GX Biz Account to the corresponding Loan(s).
5.10 Each Loan drawn will have a corresponding Loan Account and any payment of a monthly instalment in respect of a Loan must be paid to the corresponding Loan Account. A monthly instalment in respect of a Loan shall not be considered as paid until the funds have been received by the Bank for that Loan.
5.11 Should you choose to prepay in full or fully settle a Loan before the end of the tenure of the Loan, you must pay the total remaining outstanding balance on the Loan which consist of the remaining principal balance, billed interest, fees and any arrears outstanding.
6.1 Any amount of funds paid directly onto a Loan when there is existingly no due or overdue amount (including interest, principal, fees, charges or arrears outstanding) will be treated as an early prepayment by you (“Prepayment”).
6.2 You can prepay your Loan(s) in part or in full at any time prior to the due date by making the payment directly onto the Loan(s) for repayment before the Loan(s)’ scheduled Installment Date.
6.3 Any Prepayment made prior to the Installment Date will be used to:
(a) first, pay any interest that has accrued on the Loan(s) up to the date the Prepayment is made; and
(b) second, reduce the outstanding principal amount of the Loan(s).
6.4 Due to the principal reduction feature of FlexiLoan, as activated by any Prepayment made, the total interest charged may be lower in the event the principal has been reduced as a result of a lower principal amount that gets charged interest charges, and henceforth reducing future interest charges. Thereafter, any upcoming installment repayment of the amount for EMI will further reduce the principal amount than initially projected.
6.5 In the event that the Prepayment amount is equal to the total outstanding amount of the Loan(s), then the Prepayment would have completely paid off the Loan(s) and the Loan(s)would be considered fully paid off and closed.
7.1 Any amount due on Installment Date but remains unpaid one day after the Installment Date would be considered overdue.
7.2 If there is an overdue and/or late payment of a monthly instalment (or any other interest, fees and charges), the Bank will impose a late charge (“Late Charge”) of 1% per annum calculated on a daily basis (on the basis of a 365-day year) on the amount in arrears calculated from the day immediately after the Installment Date until the date of full payment, both after and before any demand or judgement.
7.3 We may revise the prescribed Late Charges applicable to your Loan(s) from time to time by giving you twenty-one (21) days’ notice before the revised rate comes into effect.
8.1 You may cancel your FlexiLoan in full at any time at no fee, provided you fully repay all outstanding amounts due to us.
