Debt rescheduling (also known as refinancing) refers to the process of replacing an existing loan with a new one. This can be desirable for various reasons, for example to obtain a more favourable interest rate, to extend or shorten the term of the loan, or to combine several existing loans into one.
An example of debt rescheduling (follow-up financing) would be if Mr Radke took out a loan to buy a house and now finds that he can get a more favourable interest rate from another bank. Mr Radke could then carry out a debt rescheduling by cancelling the old loan with his original bank and taking out a new loan with the other bank instead in order to finance the purchase price of the house.
An important point with debt rescheduling is that there are usually costs and fees for cancelling the old loan and taking out the new one. For this reason, it is important that you are well informed in advance and calculate whether the debt rescheduling is actually worthwhile. In some cases, it may make more sense to keep the existing loan instead of replacing it with a new one.
Another way in which debt rescheduling can be useful is if the borrower's financial circumstances have changed. For example, if Mr Radke has received a pay rise after taking out his loan or if he has been able to reduce his debts so that he is now able to repay a higher monthly amount. In such cases, debt rescheduling can help to reduce the overall cost of the loan and lessen the financial burden.
Another important issue in connection with debt rescheduling is the risk of interest rate changes. In times of rising interest rates, it may make sense to reschedule in order to agree a fixed interest rate for the new loan instead of continuing to pay a variable interest rate that could increase. On the other hand, in times of falling interest rates, it may be advisable to keep the existing loan in order to benefit from lower interest rates.
