Question juridique clé
Whether conventional interest at 5% on the CHF 700,000 loan was owed from 2001-08-01 to 2004-05-31.
Solution extraite
Yes. The borrower owed contractual interest for the remaining term after the last payment on 2001-07-31.
Motifs extraits
The lower-court findings and expert evidence showed the loan bore 5% interest from 2001-06-01 and no interest had been paid after 2001-07-31; therefore the bank could claim the contractual interest until the debt was denounced on 2004-05-31.
