State of Credit 2017

Published: February 1, 2018 by Guest Contributor

Our 8th annual State of Credit report shows that consumer credit scores and signs of economic recovery continue on an upward trend, coming close to a prerecession environment.

  • The average U.S. credit score is up 2 points to 675 from last year and is just 4 points away from the 2007 average.
  • Originations are increasing across nearly all loan types, with personal loans and automotive loans showing 11% and 6% increases year-over-year, respectively.
  • Consumer confidence is up 25% year-over-year and has increased more than 16% from this period in 2007.

With employment and consumer confidence rising, the economy is expected to expand at a healthy pace this year and continue to rebound from the recession. Now is the time to capitalize on this promising credit trend.

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source.
