    KPMG comments on on today’s Q1 Credit Conditions survey from the Bank of England

    Karim Haji, Global and UK Head of Financial Services at KPMG, comments on today’s Q1 Credit Conditions survey from the Bank of England.

    Karim Haji, Global and UK Head of Financial Services at KPMG, comments on today’s Q1 Credit Conditions survey from the Bank of England:

    “Considering inflation is now falling and is expected to drop to below the Bank of England’s 2% target in the months ahead, rising demand for credit card lending in Q1 suggests a more positive economic outlook hasn’t fed through to household finances yet.

    “Defaults across all unsecured lending increasing over the same three-month period indicates many people are still struggling to meet their day-to-day costs. Lenders will need to be vigilant and continue to offer support for borrowers in the interim.”
