EPISODE 1: Be prepared to re-think your notion of what makes a good credit customer.

The trends that we see in consumer credit behaviour show habitual changes in borrowers brought on by the COVID-19 bubble. Consumer A is prioritising the maintenance of a new, improved lifestyle while consumer B has cut back on expenses and is struggling under the weight of their liabilities.
Kevin James from Equifax unpacks what these key insights mean for Australia’s Big Banks.
In the first episode, we’re looking at:

  • What the data shows about which borrowers are likely to default in the coming months
  • The new definition of a creditworthy consumer
