Introduction to Lending

This module allows banks to use the following lending products: personal loans, vehicle loans, mortgage loans (fixed rate), mortgage loans (variable rate) in a predefined SaaS environment.

The new AU product conditions have been prefixed with AU and the existing core product conditions that have been reused do not have this prefix.

Click here to understand the terms and abbreviations used in this module.

The following AU features are deployed in the AU SaaS environment:

Rate lock: Rate lock is an agreement between the customer and the bank that allows the customer to lock in the interest rate. This will protect the customer from being exposed to the risk of interest fluctuations. The rate for a new loan is compared to that of an existing loan and the lower of the two rates is applied on the new loan. This comparison is also done when the rate lock is applied after account opening.
Loan redraw: Redraw facility is a product feature that enables a customer to access the additional funds that were paid which were paid over and above the scheduled repayment amount. If a payment results in an amount being diverted to the UNC (Unspecified Credit) balance, then the customer can recover that amount from the loan account.
Interest rate change notice: This feature will lock the repayment amount in the case the bank initiated the rate increase so that the new repayment amount will only be effective after a pre-defined notice period (days). When there is a change in the interest rate, an interest rate change notice will be generated in COB.

Auto-Repayment of a Loan from the Redraw Balance

One of the widely offered functions across banks in Australia for its customers is to have offset accounts and redraw functions for mortgage contracts. In Temenos Transact, it is the UNC account (UNC) balance that is used for the redraw function. Any balance in UNC will be net with the loan outstanding (CURACCOUNT) for the purpose of principal interest calculation.

The loan repayment is serviced from the bank’s internal customer accounts or from external accounts through direct debit mandates provided by the customer.

This functionality allows banks to utilise the redraw balance for repayment of the loan and when the direct debit claim is failed and again failed after being re-tried two times additionally or when the repayment from the bank’s internal account is failed.

The booking date of such transaction will be the date on which the redraw amount is taken.

The DD.RETURN,AULEND.POST.RETURN.DD version has been introduced as part of this functionality to allow users to process the returns received and do resubmissions for collection.

When the loan repayment is failed through the settlement account or DD mandate, a new functionality has been introduced to perform the loan repayment by debiting the UNC balance and settling the outstanding bills.

A new local field has been created in the SETTLEMENT product condition as Loan Repayment from UNC Balance. This field enables the user to select an option based on which an amount will be debited from UNC to repay the outstanding loan.

The AULEND.SETTLE.ACCOUNT.REDRAW routine has been created and attached to the core settlement job. When the repayment from the settlement account is failed, the bills will be in due status.

Schedule Recalculation without Redraw Balance

Any balance in UNC will be net with the loan outstanding (CURACCOUNT) for the purpose of principal interest calculation.

The UNC balance will not be net with outstanding balance for the purpose of payment amount (EMI amount) calculation.

This functionality allows banks, when it comes to schedule recalculation, to consider the UNC balance for the interest projections on P&I contracts as it is a balance type within the loan contract.

The AULEND.CALC.PAYMENT.AMOUNT routine has been introduced to calculate the Calc Amount in the Payment Schedule based on the CURACCOUNT (CUR) balance only .The interest calculation happens as per the core by considering the CURACCOUNT and UNC balance defined in the Ac Balance Type.

The AULEND.SCH.RECAL.DR.DAILY record has been created in the AA.SOURCE.CALC.TYPE application to attach the AULEND.CALC.PAYMENT.AMOUNT routine in the Calc Routine field.
