Illustrative example:

Mr Smart took out a CZK 4,500,000 American Mortgage (Home Equity Loan) with a repayment term of 30 years and a 3-year fixation period. His interest rate was 5.38% p.a.

Throughout the initial fixation period, he repaid his loan regularly and on time, made no extraordinary repayments, and met all the Mortgage Repayment Reward Programme conditions. During this period, he paid a total of CZK 711,320.40 in interest.

As his loan falls within the band eligible for a 4% reward on the interest paid, he will receive a reward of CZK 28,452.82 at the end of the initial fixation period.

This amount will be used as an extraordinary repayment of the loan principal, reducing the outstanding balance and, consequently, the regular monthly instalment.

Note: This example shows the reward for the initial fixation period only. The reward for the second and each subsequent fixation period cannot be determined reliably when the loan is arranged, as it depends, among other things, on the outstanding loan balance at the beginning of the relevant fixation period and the actual amount of interest paid during that period. Therefore, the exact reward amount will always be calculated before the start of each new fixation period and communicated to the client via Internetbanking.


This product is available to individuals and self-employed individuals aged 18 or over who are Czech citizens or EU citizens with temporary or permanent residence in the Czech Republic for at least one year.
