This book was released on 1988 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1986, credit card balances amounted to about $5 billion, and it is estimated that in 1987 approximately 64% of Canadian consumers possessed at least one credit card. However, there are very few terms and conditions in the pricing of credit cards, making it difficult for the average consumer to understand the costs associated with their use. This paper studies aspects of the credit card industry: partial payments, variations in interest rates, variation in method of interest calculation, the cost of credit card services from financial institutions, retail stores and gasoline credit cards, and travel cards. Discusses provision of information, changes to industry practices and recommends a method of interest calculation. Includes April 1988 pricing features of selected cards.

Book excerpt: "For consumer loans, the Canadian government, at both the provincial and federal levels, has established regulations which require the disclosure in a standardized form of the terms and conditions that determine the cost of borrowing. Given the importance of credit cards as a source of credit and the increasing public concern regarding the pricing of credit cards, it would seem appropriate for governments to consider what types of initiatives should be taken to assist consumers in making informed use of their credit cards. Reflecting the overlapping jurisdiction in this area, federal, provincial and territorial Ministers responsible for Consumer and Corporate Affairs, have jointly directed the preparation of this paper"--Introduction.

Book excerpt: On June 29, 2007, the Payment Cards Center of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia sponsored a workshop led by Jeanne Hogarth, program manager, Consumer Education and Research Section, Division of Consumer and Community Affairs, Federal Reserve Board of Governors, to discuss the Board's proposed changes to disclosure requirements for open-end credit, in particular, credit card billing statements and solicitation materials. Hogarth tied the proposed changes to her own research that identified certain behaviors most likely to affect the interest rates consumers pay for credit card borrowing. Given these research findings, Hogarth argued that having access to easily understood information about critical credit card terms and conditions can help consumers make more financially efficient decisions.

This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Committee's report examines a number of issues of public concern regarding how the credit card industry deals with its customers, particular in relation to the lack of transparency in information provision about interest rates and charges made on credit and store cards, and the role which charging and marketing methods are playing in the rise of high personal debt levels. The report's findings include that the introduction of clearer information about the credit card charges through a 'summary box' giving examples of the cost of different borrowing scenarios should improve transparency and this approach could be extended to monthly statements. Concerns are also noted about the effects of risk-based pricing on consumers, the current level of penalty charges, and of irresponsible lending practices which encourage people into 'sleep-walking' into a situation of over-indebtedness. However, not all the fault lies with lenders, and users must also recognise that credit cards are an expensive method of long-term borrowing. The Committee states its strong support for the OFT's decision to examine the store card market, where evidence suggests competition is not working properly. The Committee expresses hope that the Government's White Paper (Cm 6040, ISBN 0101604025) will promote effective action, and notes that the OFT needs to take a more proactive approach to protect consumer interests.
Book Synopsis Strategic Responses to Regulatory Threat in the Credit Card Market by : Victor Stango
Download or read book Strategic Responses to Regulatory Threat in the Credit Card Market written by Victor Stango and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In November 1991, federal lawmakers threatened to place a binding cap on credit card interest rates. I find that credit card rates declined following the regulatory threat, more so for larger and more politically visible credit card issuers. A set of stock market event studies reveals that interest rate cuts announced after the threat led to positive abnormal returns, both for announcing issuers and their rivals. This pattern does not exist for similar rate cuts made outside the period of regulatory threat. The results suggest that firms may experience private benefits to price-cutting when doing so mitigates regulatory threat, and spillover benefits when another firm cuts prices in order to ease regulatory threat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On May 22, 2001, the Payment Cards Center of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia sponsored a workshop on the role of interchange fees in the credit card industry. The workshop discussion, led by Dr. David Humphrey of Florida State University, explored the framework behind interchange fees.2 It then focused on several open questions that have arisen within both the academic research and international regulatory communities about interchange's impact on payment system efficiency. The paper that follows is supplemented by additional research and provides background information on interchange, a transaction-level overview of the credit card system that results in the extraction of interchange, and a summary of Dr. Humphrey's comments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the height of the Great Depression a number of leading U.S. economists advanced a proposal for monetary reform that became known as the Chicago Plan. It envisaged the separation of the monetary and credit functions of the banking system, by requiring 100% reserve backing for deposits. Irving Fisher (1936) claimed the following advantages for this plan: (1) Much better control of a major source of business cycle fluctuations, sudden increases and contractions of bank credit and of the supply of bank-created money. (2) Complete elimination of bank runs. (3) Dramatic reduction of the (net) public debt. (4) Dramatic reduction of private debt, as money creation no longer requires simultaneous debt creation. We study these claims by embedding a comprehensive and carefully calibrated model of the banking system in a DSGE model of the U.S. economy. We find support for all four of Fisher's claims. Furthermore, output gains approach 10 percent, and steady state inflation can drop to zero without posing problems for the conduct of monetary policy.

Book Synopsis Consumer Credit and the American Economy by : Thomas A. Durkin
Download or read book Consumer Credit and the American Economy written by Thomas A. Durkin and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-16 with total page 737 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consumer Credit and the American Economy examines the economics, behavioral science, sociology, history, institutions, law, and regulation of consumer credit in the United States. After discussing the origins and various kinds of consumer credit available in today's marketplace, this book reviews at some length the long run growth of consumer credit to explore the widely held belief that somehow consumer credit has risen "too fast for too long." It then turns to demand and supply with chapters discussing neoclassical theories of demand, new behavioral economics, and evidence on production costs and why consumer credit might seem expensive compared to some other kinds of credit like government finance. This discussion includes review of the economics of risk management and funding sources, as well discussion of the economic theory of why some people might be limited in their credit search, the phenomenon of credit rationing. This examination includes review of issues of risk management through mathematical methods of borrower screening known as credit scoring and financial market sources of funding for offerings of consumer credit. The book then discusses technological change in credit granting. It examines how modern automated information systems called credit reporting agencies, or more popularly "credit bureaus," reduce the costs of information acquisition and permit greater credit availability at less cost. This discussion is followed by examination of the logical offspring of technology, the ubiquitous credit card that permits consumers access to both payments and credit services worldwide virtually instantly. After a chapter on institutions that have arisen to supply credit to individuals for whom mainstream credit is often unavailable, including "payday loans" and other small dollar sources of loans, discussion turns to legal structure and the regulation of consumer credit. There are separate chapters on the theories behind the two main thrusts of federal regulation to this point, fairness for all and financial disclosure. Following these chapters, there is another on state regulation that has long focused on marketplace access and pricing. Before a final concluding chapter, another chapter focuses on two noncredit marketplace products that are closely related to credit. The first of them, debt protection including credit insurance and other forms of credit protection, is economically a complement. The second product, consumer leasing, is a substitute for credit use in many situations, especially involving acquisition of automobiles. This chapter is followed by a full review of consumer bankruptcy, what happens in the worst of cases when consumers find themselves unable to repay their loans. Because of the importance of consumer credit in consumers' financial affairs, the intended audience includes anyone interested in these issues, not only specialists who spend much of their time focused on them. For this reason, the authors have carefully avoided academic jargon and the mathematics that is the modern language of economics. It also examines the psychological, sociological, historical, and especially legal traditions that go into fully understanding what has led to the demand for consumer credit and to what the markets and institutions that provide these products have become today.
Book Synopsis Paying with Plastic, second edition by : David S. Evans
Download or read book Paying with Plastic, second edition written by David S. Evans and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2004-12-17 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive account of the trillion-dollar payment card industry. The payment card business has evolved from its inception in the 1950s as a way to handle payment for expense-account lunches (the Diners Club card) into today's complex, sprawling industry that drives trillions of dollars in transaction volume each year. Paying with Plastic is the definitive source on an industry that has revolutionized the way we borrow and spend. More than a history book, Paying with Plastic delivers an entertaining discussion of the impact of an industry that epitomizes the notion of two-sided markets: those in which two or more customer groups receive value only if all sides are actively engaged. New to this second edition, the two-sided market discussion provides useful insight into the implications of these market dynamics for cardholder rewards, merchant interchange fees, and card acceptance. The authors, both of whom have researched the industry for more than 25 years, also examine the implications of the recent antitrust cases on the industry as well as other business and technological changes—including the massive consolidation brought about by bank mergers, the rise of the debit card, and the emergence of e-commerce—that could alter the payment card industry dramatically in the years to come.
