A facility is a committed or arranged source of financing, credit, or borrowing capacity made available under agreed terms.
A loan provides borrowed funds under a defined repayment structure, while a line of credit gives flexible access up to a limit.
Open-end credit lets borrowers draw, repay, and borrow again up to a credit limit rather than receiving one fixed loan amount.
Revolving credit allows repeated borrowing and repayment up to a limit, making available credit refresh as balances are paid down.
Revolving credit refreshes as balances are repaid, while installment credit is repaid through scheduled payments on a fixed loan balance.
