My family spent the weekend in the National Museum of Singapore. As we stroll, my children ran and played inside where there is a vintage vase that they accidentally broke which costs a lot. I don't have that lot of cash in hand. I am hoping and wondering if I could repay the damage through my loan.

This card is a great contender for the 7-year personal loans lead yet is the relative newcomer on the block. This does not stop them from being very aggressive in Singapore these past few years. Although Bank of China $martLoan’s interest rates are on the high side, Bank of China is generally more lenient than most other banks in Singapore and have a lower minimum annual income.

The OCBC ExtraCash Loan is a true personal loan as it allows you to borrow up to 6X your monthly salary. However, I must warn that the interest rate is kinda high. If you don’t require that much money, I recommend that you consider the OCBC Cash-on-Instalments loan which is slightly cheaper. However currently with OCBC personal loan, you can get a MoneySmart exclusive rate of 3.5% (7.27% p.a.) for new loan customers with only 1% processing fee. For existing loan customers, you pay an interest of 4.7% p.a. (EIR 9.46% p.a.).

Maybank does not exactly offer a proper personal loan in itself but its term loan is linked to its personal credit line product. You just need to sign up for CreditAble in order to cash your credit line using the Maybank CreditAble Term Loan but note the terms & conditions and annual fee however. In my personal opinion, the loan amount is small while the interest is high, so it may be best to avoid this one.

An incident like this usually happens and as a museum goer, you are not obliged to pay the damage. You can report what had happened to the museum attendant and they will let you leave. After the incident report, an insurance company will send a representative to inspect the workplace and evaluate the damage. They will obtain a proposal for the repair to a conservator.
