The loaning of money is when one party gives money to another with the expectation that it will be paid back, usually with interest.
Interest Rate: This is the proportion of a loan that is charged as interest to the borrower, typically expressed as an annual percentage of the loan outstanding.
Credit: Credit refers to an agreement where a borrower receives something of value now and agrees to repay the lender at some date in future, generally with interest.
Debt: Debt is something, typically money, that is owed or due. When you borrow money through a loan, you are in debt until you pay it back.
