A rollover is the renewal of a loan. Instead of liquidating a loan on maturity, you can
roll it over into a new loan. The outstanding principal of the old loan is rolled-over
with or without the interest outstanding on it. When a loan is rolled-over (renewed), it
is processed in the following manner:
- A new version of the loan with the same contract reference number is initiated.
- A new loan with a different contract reference number is initiated.
- The original loan could be split into multiple loans as a result of the rollover.
- The original loan could be consolidated along with other loans as a result of the rollover
