Revolving Credit
A form of credit in which a borrower can repeatedly draw funds within a limit. Each repayment first offsets interest and fees, with the remainder applied to amortizing the principal. Credit card revolving limits and some consumer loans fall into this category.

The share of fees within repayments is the key variable determining how fast the principal declines; if the fee ratio is underestimated, the simulated principal balance will fall faster than in reality, thereby severely underestimating the final lump-sum settlement amount required.
In the case, after AI self-verification it was found that the share of repayments allocated to fees was far higher than originally assumed, and principal was repaid much more slowly than in the simulation, causing the lump-sum payoff total to balloon to nearly twice the original estimate.
