Confirmation of Employment Letter from Bank

An organization’s employer writes a letter of confirmation of employment for the bank for an employee seeking a loan from a bank. The employee presents this letter, issued by the employer, to the bank to ensure that he is currently employed and has a constant source of income.

As lenders, this confirmation of employment letter is often a requirement of different banks when lending money to employees. The banks seek this letter for various reasons, such as:

  • The bank needs proof of the borrower’s employment status and the income source.
  • Suppose the employer is issuing a letter to its employee. In that case, it means that the employee probably will not suffer from any financial issues in the future regarding repayment of the bank’s money.
  • The bank wants to minimize the chances of default by ensuring the person can repay the loan and interest.

Many templates are available online and in programs, such as Microsoft Word, that can be used for writing this letter after customization based on the requirements of the employee, employer, and bank. Otherwise, the HR department can prepare the template itself. The information and the details included in this letter may vary, but the general format consists of the following:

  • Date.
  • Details of the employer.
  • Details of the employee.
  • Employment status and income figures of the employee.
  • Reinforcement of the employee’s character.
  • Reinforcement of the employee’s job security and the importance of his role in the organization.
  • Signature.

This letter holds great significance as the bank may use it as a base to decide whether the loan would be granted to a specific employee. Sometimes, if the bank is unsatisfied with the details in this letter, it may simply reject the loan request even if the employee fulfills all the other criteria. This means that due attention must be given when preparing this letter.

This document is evidence of the employee’s job and income status and is kept in the record with the employer and the borrower’s file, which the bank holds.
