An ongoing loan is a specialized loan, which automatically rolls at its payment date, unless one of the parties decides to cancel it (provided with a given notice period).
In Fairways Debt, ongoing loans behave very similarly to standard loans, except that they do not have a maturity date and that they include an implicit renewal policy which states that the loan will be rolled on an ongoing basis.
Ongoing loans cannot be amortized.
