Borrowing guides

Borrowing for a specific need

Some of the most common reasons people borrow do not map onto a single product. These guides explain what we can fund, what we cannot, and which facility to use.

  • School fees loans in Zimbabwe

    Funding a term’s fees when the invoice lands before the money does — and which Alector product to use.Read the guide
  • Vehicle and equipment finance in Zimbabwe

    What we can and cannot fund when a business needs an asset — stated plainly, including when to go elsewhere.Read the guide

Not sure which loan you need?

Estimate an installment with our repayment calculator, or talk to a loan officer before you apply — there is no charge either way.
