installments will consist of relatively larger interest payments and relatively smaller principle amount payments. Near the end of the loan period, the installments will consist of relatively smaller interest payments and relatively larger principal amount paymens. If the interest rate is changed by the lender, the borrower will receive a new payemnt plan, wherein all installments will still be the same amount (however, a bit higher if the interest has increased, a bit lower if the interest has decreased).

A Norwegian "annuitetslĂĄn" most often will have a floating interest rate. However, as long as the interest actually rate remains the same (until the bank changes the interest rate) all installments payable are of an equal amount. Meaning that in the beginning of the total loan period, the

i understand you use official definition and calculations. the problem is fixed rate is not really fixed as we know, in reality it variable rate with starting rate of 90%. this fact never mentioned and 90% interest create unequal positions.
