Accrued interest

The interest applied as a penalisation when the debtor does not comply with repayment obligations. The amount must be established in the contract.

Active supermortgage

This allows the client to choose their loan's benchmark index (MIBOR at three months, six months or a year) so that payment can benefit from lower interest rates sooner.

Adaptable instalment

Characteristic of UCI superloans that allow the borrower to not pay one instalment a year for the first three years if there are problems due to holidays, extraordinary expenses, etc.

Advanced cancellation fee

A commission arising from the financial risk involved in the advanced cancellation of an operation. The applied commission compensates the financial institution for its financial losses.

AEDE

Affordable housing

Affordable rent

The cost of renting these dwellings is below market prices after being included in operations concerning the rented flat pool, social renovation or social housing promotions.

Amortisation

Payment made to repay a loan.

Amortisation period

The duration of the loan. The contract establishes the date of the first and last payments. The longer the period, the lower the payments are, but the higher the interest. You therefore pay more in the end. The monthly instalment should not exceed 35% of your net income.

API

A qualified professional who acts as an intermediary between the two interested parties to facilitate the signing of a real estate contract, which can be a rental agreement, a sales agreement or another similar contract. They usually charge a percentage of the sales price as compensation or commission.

Applicant

APR

Arbitri municipal de plusvàlua

Former denomination of the capital gains tax on landed property.

Assessment

The value of a dwelling certified by a specialised assessment company, in accordance with the mortgage market law. This certificate not only indicates the real value of the property, it also serves as a reference for obtaining the necessary financing.

Quin impacte ha tingut el món colonial en la història de la ciutat?

La Barcelona actual no s’entén sense les transferències colonials entre la ciutat i els continents americà i africà: des de les noves modes de consum sorgides a l’entorn del 1700 (com la xocolata, el cafè o el tabac), fins a la influència dels indians en la construcció de la gran Barcelona a partir del segle XIX. En aquest itinerari pel conjunt arqueològic i els entorns del centre, observarem com el relat triomfal que vincula colonialitat i modernitat ha amagat una història d’explotació i de desigualtat. Una història on l’esclavisme esdevé un element central que ens explica les contradiccions de la nostra ciutat.
