Union Bank of India offers a range of financial products to different segments of its customer base. The bank gives you a range of loans to choose from based on your preference.
Union Bank of India Consolidation Loans
A consolidation loan helps customers pay off their debts and consolidate them into one loan which they can repay by choosing terms best suited for their needs.
An unsecured loan like a personal loan or a secured loan like a loan against property, gold, securities, etc. can be considered as a consolidation loan. A “balance of transfer loan” scheme can also be considered as a consolidation loan if it is a relatively low-interest loan and helps reduce the debt burden. Similarly, a top-up home loan that can be used to repay credit card debt or other high-interest loans can also be considered as a consolidation loan.
These loans help make the repayment of debts easier since there is usually just one outgoing payment and the borrower does not have to worry about making multiple loan/credit card debt repayments on different days of the month. Another indirect advantage of consolidating loans is that the borrower can keep a track of exactly how much is being paid towards the debt each month and plan a monthly budget accordingly.
Please remember that Union Bank of India does not label any loan scheme as a consolidation loan. Instead, a few schemes can be used for the purpose of consolidating debts even if they are not directly labelled so. Here are some of the loan schemes offered by Union Bank of India that you can avail as a consolidation loan:
- Union Personal Loan – Salaried (Personal Loan for Employees of Private Organisations)
