MMC Benefits Handbook
Loan Terms
The Loan Administrator establishes rules for the loan program. Subject to those rules:
- you can take a loan for any reason.
- generally, the maximum length of your loan is 5 years; if the loan is for the purchase of a primary residence, the maximum length of the loan is 15 years.
- loan repayments are made by payroll deduction.
- interest rate is prime rate plus 1% based on the prime rate in effect at the time your loan is processed.
- there are no fees for taking a loan.
Your vested account balance is security (serves as collateral) for the loan. If you have any Roth 401(k) contributions and earnings, Roth rollover contributions and earnings, Roth catch-up contributions and earnings, in-plan Roth conversion amounts in the Plan, or MMC fixed company contributions transferred from the Marsh & McLennan Companies 401(k) Savings & Investment Plan, these amounts will be applied as collateral for a loan but will not be a source of funds for the loan.
When you authorize the loan request online, it binds you to the terms and conditions of the loan, the Loan Program and the loan disclosure statement.
