M&T CHOICEquity†
At M&T, we offer M&T CHOICEquity, a unique solution that gives you the flexibility of a line of credit and the security of a loan option in one account - so you can keep up with life.*
DISCOVER THE FLEXIBILITY
With M&T CHOICEquity, you can get that roof fixed or furnace installed right away - or keep your money for future needs. Use it as a fixed-rate loan today, and you're free to pay off higher interest credit cards. Keep it as a line of credit, and you can renovate your kitchen two years from now. It's all up to you. And unlike other loans, there are absolutely no hidden surprises. You won't be charged an inactivity fee or annual fee - and you'll never have to worry about balloon payments.
ENJOY THE SECURITY
With a special loan lock-in feature, M&T CHOICEquity gives you added security against rising interest rates. Choose when to lock in up to three loan segments at fixed low rates, and get more control over your finances - on terms that matter to you.
