Refinance
1. When a business or person revises their payment schedule for repaying debt.
2. Replacing an older loan with a new loan offering better terms.
Investopedia Commentary
When a business refinances they typically extend the maturity date. When individuals change their monthly payments, or modify the rate of interest on their loan, it usually involves a penalty fee.
