Your debt-to-income ratio measures how much debt you can handle based on your income. A high ratio may affect loan approvals and interest rates.

Your debt-to-income ratio helps determine how much debt you can handle. This is calculated by comparing your net income to the amount of debt you have.

Here's an example: 


Based on the above, your debt-to-income ratio is 25%. Typically, a ratio exceeding 40% indicates excessive debt. In such cases, you may be denied further credit or you may need to pay a higher interest rate for new debt.
Here's another example:


In this example, total credit card debt is P40,000, making your debt-to-income ratio 80%. There is a big chance that your application for loans or a credit limit increase may be declined.
