Americans with an Account in Third Party Collections Hits All-Time High...Again
Excerpt from: insideARM.com
Despite a drop-off in severely delinquent credit, the percentage of Americans with at least one credit report trade line from third party debt collection agencies stayed near an all-time high in the second quarter of 2013, according to the Quarterly Report on Household Debt and Credit from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
The New York Fed (FRBNY) reported that 14.60 percent of Americans had a third party collection action on their credit reports in Q2 2013, down very slightly from 14.64 percent in the first quarter, the highest rate on record.
The average balance on third party debt collection accounts continued to fall in the quarter. In Q2 2013, the average was $1,409 per account, down from $1,433 in the first quarter and well below the all-time high of $1,550 set in the second quarter of 2012.
