A disclosure details all material facts relevant to a transaction. Federal or state laws require financial institutions to provide disclosures containing information on terms to their customers. It can sometimes be difficult to decipher the information you are given.
However, disclosure statements contain the critical information you need to make an informed decision about which financial institution, and its products and services are right for you. Below is a checklist of the important sections when applying for a new loan at AODFCU!
