Credit Lenders Less Strict?

December 13, 2010

Credit lenders began to change terms and approach to extending credit to consumers when the country became involved in the economic woes that are prevalent now ie; unemployment, foreclosures, consumer spending down, and credit ratings.
Recently, the lenders are taking a second look at borrowers, especially in the area of credit scores and re-evaluating some borrowers as an approach to increase their profits in the area of credit cards.  The lenders have experienced a dramatic decrease in the area of credit card profits and are looking for ways to bring it back to the past levels; of course the borrowers are the key area of focus and they have decided to take some risk by redefining the risky borrower.

The new category of borrower:
“Strategic Defaulters" ,  “First-time Defaulters” - Although both types appear to the lender to have the ability to repay, past
credit issues have caused problems with standard credit scoring and hits on that score have classified them as risky.

Interesting...more credit, more spending, better economy?

Small Businesses Add Jobs To Our Economy

November 29, 2010
Historically, small business starts were leading in adding new jobs to the American economy and this may still be true on a smaller scale in today's economic times.
There are a number of small businesses starting out more on the self-employed scale due to job loss and the lack thereof in the job market today.
Small Businesses need capital and in the past a home equity line of credit or business credit cards could carry the business for sometime until revenues started picking up.  Unfortunately,...
