What's the difference between a Fixed and Variable rate Loan?
A fixed rate loan gives you the security of knowing what your repayments are and protects you against interest rate rises for the life of the loan.
A variable rate loan gives you flexibility, as you can pay extra off your loan# and request to redraw1 those extra payments if and when you need them.

What's the difference between a Secured and Unsecured Personal Loan?
A secured loan requires an asset, such as a car, as security for your personal loan. If you don't repay your loan, the lender can sell the asset to cover the cost of the loan.
An unsecured loan doesn't require an asset for your personal loan.
