Abstract

The maturity of the borrowing refers to the maximum life of any of its elements; thus it matures on the day an which its final element is due to be repaid. The colloquial term “bullet” is given to a loan which matures in a single amount. Such loans are not uncommon for shorter maturities, but for longer maturities of, say, seven to ten years it is normal for a loan to be repaid (amortised) in a series of instalments; these may be annual, semi-annual, or occasionally more frequent. The amortisation schedule specifies the dates and amounts of the repayments and the length of the grace period before they begin.
