With a view to assist consumers who are on the lookout for a loan scheme that will help and assist them in financing their various requirements, BBK's retail banking division recently announced their new consumer loan promotion under the theme 'Brighten your home with a BBK consumer loan'.

The bank plans to provide consumers with competitive interest rates and speedy approvals on applications. Bahrainis as well as expatriates are eligible to apply for the loan.

Whether the customers are looking at refurbishing their homes or require financial assistance for a holiday or even for an unforeseen expense, the consumer loan by BBK aims at fulfilling all of those needs.

Axel Hofmann, acting head of retail banking at BBK said: "The summer holidays are the only free time that people get to focus their attention on renovation or re-decorating their houses. Quite often that expense can be heavy and the customer is caught up in trying to get a consumer loan approval which can be a tedious process.

"We wanted to create a scenario for our customers whereby all they focus on is the process of making their house more beautiful, while we at BBK take care of the procedures and processes."

The first 500 customers to get a consumer loan between June 11 and August 15 will get a free Home Centre voucher worth BD50.
