Banks usually do not require a letter to obtain a personal loan, but other financial institutions require a letter. Writing a letter wherein you ask for a loan is not a difficult task though a few guidelines should be followed. The letter needs to mention your loan and then also mention your capability to repay the loan.
The bank only needs to know your reason for applying for the loan and how you would repay the debt, nothing else. If you have benefited from the services of this bank in the past, then you can mention that in your letter. If you have an account in this particular bank, you must mention that as well. Before issuing a loan, the bank needs to know you are already a valuable part of the bank. Only then will it be convinced to give you the loan. If you have some accounts in this bank and do a great deal with it, then the bank will have the preference for you than another person who is seeking for a loan to this company.
