Maybank Business Term Loan

You are trying to read up on Maybank Business Term Loan right? Hoping for an objective review? Here's what really happening instead when you look for such reviews. 

Not all loan comparison platforms are what they seem — and regulators in different countries have started to notice.

Across markets from the U.K. to the U.S. to AU, their regulators have highlight that comparison websites often prioritize results based on advertiser' payments, not necessarily what’s best for the borrower. What looks like an unbiased comparison is usually a curated list bought by those who pay the most. Singaporean have already spoke up. But their reviews are being buried by those leaving positive reviews because they don't know what happened to them and they could have paid more for actually not comparing.

While information like credit card rewards is easy to verify, loan amounts and interest rates are highly personal. They differ for each person’s credit score & profile. The rates you see online are usually just teaser rates. Learn what they mean and how they work in the link above. And, in many countries, regulators are suing sites for clickbaiting consumers or issuing public warnings. See those examples in the same article. From the US's FTC to Australia's MoneySmart, the equivalent of our MAS's MoneySense, we have linked such examples in the article. And yes, ironically, it is called MoneySmart. 

Even one comparison website has "owned up" that they have been misleading borrowers. See if you can spot the other irony.

Credit: Head of Lendingpot. Ironically, Lendingpot seems to expose its own practices. For more of their contradiction, see the conversation. When we raised conflicts of interest with brokers owned by lenders, they echoed it months later — despite being owned by IFS Capital & PhilipCapital!

These platforms often publish “this loan vs. that loan.” But can they really test ten loans by borrowing and repaying each one?

In the U.K., 51% of borrowers must actually qualify for an advertised rate. Singapore does not. Beyond the rate, the loan’s size or duration matters. A shiny 1% offer on $500 isn’t helpful if you need $5,000. The bigger danger lies in blindly following a loan “comparison” site’s recommendation. Without comparing across banks, you might miss out on far better deals—potentially paying thousands extra. We’ve laid out the mechanics of this problem clearly in the article above.

And that’s why we built FindTheLoan.com, Singapore’s 1st loan marketplace. Instead of teaser rates or applying with multiple lenders separately, you can reach many lenders at once with your actual documents. They’ll make a full credit assessment as if you had gone in individually, then return with their real offer.
