Definition of Arrears
This arrears multiplier is calculated as the arrears amount (which is the
difference between the expected monthly repayments and the amount that has
actually been paid, i.e. a total of under and/or over payments) divided by the
monthly amount repayable. It is recalculated every time the arrears amount
changes, i.e. on the date when a payment is due.
