How much does the loan cost?

How much a business loan with Judo Bank will cost will depend on the type of loan that you opt for, your financial circumstances and the loan term. The following are some of the costs you may expect:

• Monthly rate. The "Judo Market Base Rate" is repriced monthly from the 1st of each month. It is calculated as the average of the last 5 business days of the prior calendar month's BBSW Ask Rate and rounded to 2 decimal places.
• Early repayment costs. If you have a fixed-rate period on your business loan and exit the loan before that period ends, you may be charged a fee. This is because Judo Bank may incur a financial loss if you repay early.

Please note that other fees and charges may apply. Please contact Judo Bank directly for further details.
