Detailed explanation-1: -In commercial lending, creditors generally follow the same principles to evaluate a borrower’s creditworthiness. A creditor usually looks at three factors known as the “three Cs": capacity, capital, and character.

Detailed explanation-2: -Lenders consider your credit score, payment history and the current economic conditions when determining interest rates. Generally speaking, the higher your credit score, the less you can expect to pay in interest. But loan-specific factors such as repayment terms play a role too.
