First, in terms of loan types, it is generally appropriate to gradually upgrade from small to large. You can first apply for a working capital loan to the bank through effective pledges, mortgages, or third-party guarantees, and then apply for a project loan when you have some strength.
Secondly, in terms of loan amount, since private operators are generally not rich enough, they should do what they can to make loans and try to avoid investing too much.
Third, in terms of loan interest rates, according to the relevant regulations of the People's Bank of China, the commercial banks and urban and rural credit cooperatives may increase the interest rate on loans to private operators by up to 30%. However, the fluctuations of various banks and credit cooperatives are not the same. Therefore, when applying for loans, you can "shop around" and try to choose financial institutions with small fluctuations in interest rates to lend.
Fourth, in terms of loan term of bank financing loans, the current short-term loans are divided into two interest rates within 6 months (including 6 months) and 6-12 months (including 1 year). For short-term loans of less than 1 year The contract interest rate is implemented, and interest is not calculated in stages. The medium and long-term loans are divided into 3 grades of 1 to 3 years, 3 to 5 years, and more than 5 years. On January 1 of the next year, the new interest rate for loans in the same period will be implemented.
Prescribe loan conditions
The loan conditions mainly include two aspects: the loan interest rate and the loan time limit, and a certain punitive interest rate can be used for short-term loans. Last loan at the central bank
Compared with other financing methods, the main disadvantages of bank loans are:
First, the conditions are harsh, there are too many restrictive clauses, the procedures are too complicated, it takes time and effort, and sometimes it may not run for a year;
Second, the borrowing period is relatively short, and long-term investments rarely receive loans;
Third, the loan amount is relatively small, and it is difficult to solve all the funds required for the development of the enterprise through the bank. Especially for the start-up and entrepreneurial stage, the risk of loans is large, and it is difficult to obtain bank loans.

Behind the beautiful performance landscape of the banking industry, the quality of bank credit assets has always been a cause for concern, and the general rise in the balance of non-performing loans in the banking industry in the first half of the year has put the quality of credit assets to the test. The interim results released by some joint-stock banks have also verified this concern.
The second quarter of the banking regulatory indicators announced by the China Banking Regulatory Commission showed that in the second quarter, non-performing loans of small and medium-sized banks rebounded more than the state-owned banks. Non-performing balances of large state-owned banks rose by 0.9% month-on-month, and non-performing loan balances of joint-stock banks, city commercial banks, rural commercial banks, and foreign banks rose by 8.1%, 12.3%, 13.9%, and 20.8%, respectively.
Significant increase in overdue loans
During the slowdown of economic growth, some small and medium-sized enterprises encountered certain difficulties in operating, especially in the Zhejiang area where private lending was more prevalent. This has become an important reason for the decline in bank asset quality in this round. Take Ping An Bank as an example. From the perspective of the industry, 78% of the bank s new non-performing loans came from the manufacturing industry. From a regional perspective, 88% of the new non-performing loans in the first half of the year came from the eastern region, indicating that Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai SMEs are operating. The predicament has a great impact on the asset quality of Ping An Bank.
Pudong Development Bank is no exception. The bank stated in its semi-annual report: "Affected by the regional economy, the company's new non-performing loans in the first half of 2012 were mainly concentrated in Wenzhou and Hangzhou, and the quality of loans in other regions remained basically stable. The company s increased credit risk in the first half of 2012 in Hangzhou has been taken into account when drawing up loan reserves. "
Some analysts believe that there is a clear phenomenon in the changes in asset quality of listed banks: non-performing loans have increased more than some banks at the beginning of the year, and overdue loans have increased more during the same period, and the non-performing ratio has increased more, and the provision coverage ratio has fallen faster In the future, the pressure on asset quality will also be greater.
From the perspective of overdue loans, as of the end of the period, SPD Bank's overdue loans were 12.3 billion yuan, an increase of 5.51 billion yuan from the beginning of the period of 6.79 billion yuan, an increase of 88.1%. Minsheng Bank's overdue loan balance was 16.849 billion yuan, an increase of 63.22%; Ping An Bank's overdue loan in the first half of the year increased by 51% over the beginning of the year; China Merchants Bank's overdue loan balance was 18.834 billion yuan, an increase of 38.27%; Industrial Bank's overdue loan half-year quarter-on-month Up 37%; Huaxia Bank's overdue loan balance was 5.858 billion yuan, an increase of about 30.7%.
Although overdue loans do not necessarily translate into non-performing loans, and eventually cause banks to lose money. However, the substantial increase in overdue loans has still caused the market to

In addition to selecting the interest rate level, other factors must also be considered, such as whether the loan has to pay a handling fee, whether the collateral is to be evaluated, and other factors that may lead to increased costs.
Different repayment methods can have a difference of up to 10,000 yuan: the bank provides a variety of flexible and repayment methods for loan repayment, and there are two more commonly used-"average monthly repayment" and "monthly principal repayment". Different repayment methods, the difference in currency costs can reach tens of thousands of yuan.
"Large repayments" reduce the total loan and save interest; make full use of subtle regulations related to loans to further reduce loan costs.
