The Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB) car loan or vehicle insurance premium financing is like a loan for your car insurance.
It allows businesses and people with salaries paid into the bank to pay for their entire insurance premium upfront, then break the cost down into smaller monthly payments over a year (typically 12 months).
