Personal Loans
TCB offers a variety of other personal loans designed to
meet consumer and family needs and financial objectives.
Personal, unsecured loans are given on the basis of
good credit history and cash flow of the borrower. Depending
on the purpose, these loans can be repaid monthly or
on a term basis. The interest rate is determined by
the amount of the loan, deposit relationship, and credit
history.
Whenever possible, collateral is taken to secure a
personal loan. Generally, a loan that has collateral
has a more favorable term and interest rate than an
unsecured loan.
All prospective loan applicants will complete an application,
cash flow statement, and in some cases a personal financial
statement for TCB's review.

and Accident & Health Insurance
