Abstract

This paper investigates how product type and interest rate as well as consumer expertise in loans and attitudes towards debt, influence preferences for down payments in the context of loan decisions. Experimental findings suggest a preference for loans for utilitarian over hedonic goods and moderating effects of expertise.
