The calculation, spelled out

  • Monthly payment = P × i / (1 − (1 + i)^−n), where P is the principal, i the annual rate divided by twelve and n the number of payments.
  • In France, borrower's insurance is computed on the initial principal, not on the outstanding balance.
  • French lenders usually cap the debt-to-income ratio at 35%, insurance included.

Example: €300,000 borrowed over 20 years at 3.5%

1 739,88 €
