  • Key Concepts: 
    Early amortization clause is a feature of the Credit Risk Management component of SAP Financial Services Business Automation (FS-BA-PM-CR). It allows customers to pay off their loan earlier than the agreed upon term, with the lender receiving a portion of the remaining interest payments. This clause is beneficial for both parties, as it allows the customer to pay off their loan faster and the lender to receive some of the remaining interest payments. 
    
    How to use it: 
    In order to use the early amortization clause, customers must first agree to it in their loan agreement. Once this is done, they can then make payments towards their loan that are larger than the agreed upon amount. The lender will then receive a portion of the remaining interest payments. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When using the early amortization clause, it is important to keep track of how much money has been paid off and how much interest has been paid. This will help ensure that both parties are getting what they agreed upon. Additionally, it is important to make sure that all payments are made on time in order to avoid any penalties or fees.
