Saving & borrowing:

Indicate your borrowing purpose, what amount you want to borrow and enter some information about yourself. We will then show you the most complete range of loans available for your situation and wishes. The loan with the lowest interest rate is always at the top.

Have you found the loan of your choice in your loan comparison? Then you can simply request a no-obligation quote online. In the quotation you will find all details and conditions of the loan. You will usually receive this quote the same working day.

Do you want to apply for the loan from the quotation? Then you return the signed quotation, together with the documents requested by the lender. You can easily upload these documents into your personal online environment.

The lender checks the documents you provide. If everything is in order, you will receive the money in your account within two working days.

You can also transfer your current loan. But it's good to know that there are conditions and sometimes costs involved.

We think it is important that you borrow responsibly. So we look at your income. But also take into account your fixed costs, such as a mortgage. This way we can accurately estimate your credit limit.

If you borrow money, this is registered with the BKR. With this registration it is often still possible to get a loan. Have you fallen behind on payments? Then borrowing becomes a bit more difficult.

You can also choose to invest through an investment fund. That is a kind of gathering point for investors. You collectively contribute money together with others. Depending on the type of fund, products are then used to purchase products. The most common funds are:  

• equity funds
• mixed funds
• real estate funds
• bond funds

An investment fund often specializes in certain sectors, companies and regions. In this way, risks can be better spread and the aim is to achieve the highest possible return.  

Do you want to invest through an investment fund? Please contact your bank or financial advisor for more information.  

Do you want to start investing? Then it is smart to inform yourself well about the costs and options. This way you prevent unexpected surprises. The costs of investing differ per situation and per financial institution. The more work you outsource, the higher the costs are often. Example: an asset manager is often more expensive than if you invest yourself with advice from an advisor. Are you going to invest yourself? Then it is good to know that this also entails costs. There are always costs associated with purchasing and selling. Do you trade a lot? Then the costs can quickly add up.

Investing with a high return sounds attractive. But it is wise to first determine whether you actually have the money to invest. First, make sure you have the necessary buffer. You can easily check this via the Nibud buffer calculator . With a buffer you always have enough money on hand.

Finass Verzekert recommends saving 10 percent of your income, but we understand that it is not easy for everyone and sometimes not feasible. Then see what works, because a buffer can prevent many financial problems.

Saving is not always easy, especially with a low income. Good insight into income and expenditure helps. There are also ways to put money aside without immediately feeling it in your wallet.

A buffer is a reserve fund to be able to pay unexpected, larger and necessary expenses immediately. For example, appliance repairs. The amount of a sensible buffer varies per household.

There are parents and grandparents who would like to save for their (grand)children. For example for a study, driving lesson or their 18th birthday. You can open a savings account but also donate an amount.

Do you want to invest in shares, bonds or cryptocurrency, for example? Make sure you always have a financial buffer and that you do not run into financial problems if the returns are disappointing. Also, don't invest in things you don't understand.
