A facility is a defined portion of a loan or credit line that is granted to a borrower as part of a loan agreement. It includes the amount limit, balance, duration, financing goal, and associated financial products. Each facility is typically secured by collateral or collateral objects.

In Akkuro Lending, facilities are categorized as main facilities and sub-facilities.

The main facility is defined under a loan agreement. It represents the primary loan or credit line granted to the borrower and specifies the total approved amount that can be accessed. For example, a lender may approve a $10 million loan facility for a real estate project under an agreement. This amount is the main facility.

The main facility can be divided into multiple sub-facilities, also known as loan parts. Each sub-facility is a smaller, specific portion of the main facility allocated for a specific purpose. Sub-facilities may have different terms, interest rates, or repayment schedules. For example, a main facility can be divided into 3 sub-facilities with different purposes:

  • Sub-facility 1: $4 million for land acquisition
  • Sub-facility 2: $3 million for construction costs
  • Sub-facility 3: $3 million for marketing and operations

The main facility also includes a construction deposit as a sub-facility with a specific purpose. A construction deposit is a separate, blocked account where part of the loan facility is held specifically for new construction or renovation projects. To access the funds, the borrower needs to submit declaration invoices, such as invoices for materials or labor, as the project progresses. Once the declaration is approved, the lender releases the corresponding amount to pay those invoices. The borrower only pays interest on the amount that has been disbursed, not the total deposit. The funds must be used within a defined time period.

For example, a main facility includes a $100,000 construction deposit. The borrower submits a declaration invoice for $25,000 in materials. Once approved, the lender releases $25,000 from the deposit account to pay the invoice. Interest is charged only on the $25,000 disbursed, not the full $100,000.

To retrieve facility records, use one of the following APIs:

Limits

Limits are the maximum amount that a borrower can borrow or draw under a facility.

To retrieve a limit record of a facility, use one of the following APIs:

Financing goals

In a loan agreement, a product refers to the specific loan type offered within a facility. It combines withdrawal, repayment, and interest methods that determine how funds are disbursed, repaid, and how interest is calculated. Each facility is associated with one product to manage different aspects of the loan.

Declarations

Some withdrawals may be based on declarations. The borrowers or a third party can submit a declaration invoice to indicate the amount they need to be disbursed. This invoice can originate from either the borrower, a supplier, or a notary. Once the invoice is reviewed and approved, the system generates a disbursement to pay the amount specified in the invoice.

Repayments

StrategyDescription
NoneNo repayment strategy applies.
InterestOnlyThe borrower pays only the interest during the loan term, while the principal remains unchanged. The full principal amount is repaid at the end of the term.
LinearThe borrower repays a fixed and equal amount of loan principal in each repayment. As the total amount decreases over time with each repayment, the interest also decreases.
AnnuityThe borrower pays a fixed installment, including both interest and principal in each repayment. Over time, the interest portion decreases and the principal portion increases, keeping the total payment constant.
RevolvingThe borrower can draw, repay, and redraw funds up to an approved credit limit. Repayments restore the available credit, and interest is charged only on the utilized amount.
IrregularScheduleThe repayment schedule does not follow a fixed pattern or frequency. Payments may occur on irregular dates or in varying amounts, often based on specific contractual agreements or exceptional cases.

To retrieve a record of repayments, use one of the following APIs:

Interest products
