Hmmm it would be nice if youd expantaiate on how this loan will be implemented...
There are many areas where we help our Borrowers.

If a student from India applied for a loan in June 2018 for $85,000 for his masters, he/ she would have to loan INR 57,80,000 (Fifty-Seven Lakh Eight Hundred Indian Rupees) form the local bank.
Historically, the Indian Rupee reached an all-time high of 74.33 in October of 2018. $85,000 in October would be 63,18,050 (Sixty Three Lakh Eighteen Thousand Fifty Indian Rupees).
That means a student who secured loan in June will have to pay the difference of 5,38,050 (Five Lakh Thirty-Eight Thousand Fifty Indian Rupees), i.e., $7328 + the interest on the disbursed amount in INR which will change according to the exchange rates.
Peerfin helps students to avoid the FX risks involved when availing loans. Our loans are in GBP, USD, and EUR in phase 1. Since the loan disbursements are processed in the university accepted currency, the student is saving at least $3000 - $10,000 of FX risk.
