After knowing that the recession has been partly caused by allowing people to get loans that they can’t pay back, it’s comforting to know that Americans are getting better in managing their credit.
Call it knocking some sense into people, but what a price. Deliquencies and late payments are expected to drop next year, according to TransUnion.
The group expects 90-day delinquencies to drop to 1.04 percent from 1.07 percent as we end the year. Deliquencies peaked at 1.42 in the Q3 of 2006.
However, issues like the continuing employment concerns will defintely have an impact on credit card delinquencies. As people continue to worry about income, card holder may default back to spending using plastic to make ends meet.
