With only one week left until Southern Africa\u2019s definitive Consumer Credit Conference taking place on 18 and 19 September 2013, we would like to invite all credit professionals to register for and attend this one of a kind consumer credit conference.<\/p>\n

Kim Dancey, Head: Policy, Regulation and Consumer Empowerment and Dr Sabine Strassburg, Senior Information and Research Specialist, both from FinMark Trust will be addressing the 6th Consumer Credit conference, discussing credit and borrowing: a demand side perspective.<\/p>\n

Finmark Trust will be addressing the pressure that unsecured lending puts on already indebted South Africans, an issue that needs to be better understood, especially now with the spiral of the market and economy.
\n\u201cLevels of unsecured credit have to be examined in the context of the broader socioeconomic pressures on individuals,\u201d said Kim Dancey, FinMark Trust.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is important to understand the impact that rising levels of unsecured credit \u2013 and subsequent indebtedness \u2013 have in areas where people are dealing with the rising costs of transport, electricity and food,\u201d Kim Dancey added, \u201cThe broader socioeconomic impacts that go with unsecured credit place pressure on employees to get more money to make repayments.\u201d<\/p>\n

Although she said the health of the banking sector is not at risk, with 9% of the total loan book attributable to unsecured credit, \u201cthere is a broader picture that needs to be examined\u201d.<\/p>\n

Join consumer credit professionals from banks, microfinance\u2019s, retailers, debt collection agencies, credit bureaus and other service and technology providers will gather at Emperors Palace to predict opportunities for 2014 and challenges that may also affect their companies, clients and organisations that help consumers.<\/p>\n
