Five C’s of Credit
The Five C’s of Credit is an evaluation method lenders use to determine whether to extend you credit. They are as follows:
1. character: your reputation
2. capacity: your ability to repay the debt in a timely manner
3. capital: any financial resources you may have, such as income
4. collateral: any large assets (property for example) that you’re willing to put as a guarantee in case you default on the loan
5. conditions: the terms of the loan, such as interest rate
