Arab Bank Australia personal loans review

Arab Bank Australia offers a range of personal loan options, with the option to have a secured or unsecured loan with either a variable or fixed interest rate.

Arab Bank Australia’s interest rates are not the cheapest on the market, so you might find better value elsewhere.

Like other financial institutions in Australia, Arab Bank Australia tends to charge higher interest rates for unsecured loans compared to secured loans, while fixed-rate loans tend to be higher than variable-rate loans.

When it comes to its secured personal loans, Arab Bank Australia charges high interest rates, while its unsecured personal loans have moderately high to high interest rates.

The fees charged on personal loans by Arab Bank Australia vary, so it pays to carefully compare these before applying.

Arab Bank Australia does allow extra repayments without penalty, but only on its variable personal loans, not fixed. It does not offer a redraw facility.
