On July 26, Russia’s Central Bank decided to raise the key interest rate from 16 to 18 percent. This decision was driven by unexpectedly high lending rates that previous regulatory measures had failed to curb. Russians are borrowing money and spending more, leading to a surge in prices. Inflation over the past year reached nine percent, far exceeding the government’s target of four percent. Meduza explains just how indebted Russians are and if this surge in lending is a serious issue for the authorities.

Why are Russians taking out loans?

According to Russia’s Central Bank, the volume of loans issued in the country has been steadily increasing since the spring of 2022. A few days after Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the bank raised its key rate to a prohibitive 20 percent, effectively halting all lending. However, it soon began bringing it back down. In April of that year, banks across the country issued loans totaling 859 billion rubles ($9.9 billion); by December, this figure had grown to two trillion ($23.1 billion).

In mid-2023, the Central Bank began raising the key rate again. Russians, realizing that loans were becoming more expensive, started applying for them sooner, causing overall loan volumes to jump to 2.4 trillion rubles ($27.8 billion) per month. This growth continued into 2024, driven by further government measures. Early this year, Russian authorities discussed curtailing preferential programs, primarily subsidized mortgages (a highly advantageous program for borrowers: while market rates were around 20 percent, the government offered loans at eight percent). Additionally, the Central Bank signaled a potential key rate increase. In response, Russians rushed to secure loans before rates increased. While the Central Bank has yet to release its official June report, analysts from Frank RG estimated that the volume of loans issued to individuals in that month increased by 13.74 percent (up 202.1 billion rubles, or $2.3 billion, compared to May 2024).

Another significant factor is income growth. Central Bank Head Elvira Nabiullina noted that people take out loans because “they’re confident in their future incomes” and feel they can “finance an improved life now.” According to Russia’s Federal State Statistics Service (Rosstat), real disposable incomes grew by more than five percent in 2023 and continued to grow in 2024. Independent analysts indirectly confirmed this, noting that consumer confidence indices are near historical highs.

The main driver of this income growth is the rapid increase in wages across many sectors of the Russian economy. As of April this year, nominal wages at large and medium-sized companies increased on average by 17 percent compared to April 2023, while real wages, adjusted for inflation, rose by 8.5 percent. Russian companies have to raise wages to attract employees as there’s a severe labor shortage in the job market.

Wages are growing fastest in industries fulfilling government defense orders. For example, in the production of “metal products” (as non-classified military goods are referred to in official statistics), wages increased by 24 percent in the span of a year. In the production of electronic products, which are also mainly supplied to the Russian army, wages rose by 28 percent.

As of May 2024, Russians owed banks more than 35.2 trillion rubles (over $408 billion). According to Meduza’s calculations, this represents an increase of nearly 22 percent in just one year. However, it’s not a record figure: in April, the amount owed was 36.6 trillion rubles ($423.6 billion). The payday loan segment grew even more rapidly, increasing by 28 percent in 2023, with Russians taking out 900 billion rubles ($10.4 billion) in loans. This growth continued into the first quarter of 2024, although the average loan amount remains around 10,000 rubles ($117).

Consumer lending has grown by 18 percent year-on-year, which economists attribute to the popularity of credit cards. Additionally, car loans have increased by 26 percent since the beginning of the year, which isn’t surprising given the record low availability of cars. Even pawnshops are showing positive trends: while there isn’t an increase in contracts, the average sum paid out gone up due to the rise in cost of precious metals.

As a result, the number of Russians with loans has reached 50 million. This is 40 percent of the country’s adult population. Over a quarter of these borrowers have more than three simultaneous loans, according to the Scoring Bureau credit history bureau. And that’s not the limit: 8.6 percent have taken out five or more loans, and the share of such debtors has doubled in two years.

One explanation is the popularity of mortgages. Eight out of 10 people with a mortgage also took out an additional loan, either for the down payment or for renovations. However, Scoring Bureau, attributes the increase to something else: the growing popularity of credit cards. In Russia, 27 million people have opened 91 million credit cards. Still, Central Bank representatives have expressed concern over the high level of indebtedness among Russians and mentioned “extreme cases,” including one person with 27 loans.

So Russians are saddled with debt?

Although more Russians are taking out loans, the average debt burden of the population — the share of household income spent on loan repayments — has remained relatively stable over the past few years. The Central Bank publishes data on this twice a year, and in the latest report from April, it noted that while the average debt burden has increased, it hovers around 11.2 percent. By comparison, in the first quarter of 2022, the average was even higher, peaking at 12.1 percent, and has since fluctuated within a two-percentage-point range. However, it’s important to note that this is an average, and some borrowers’ debt burden is significantly higher. Currently, 56 percent of borrowers in Russia have a debt burden of over 50 percent.

Another indicator of financial stability is the share of so-called bad debts — those with payments overdue by more than 90 days. In the consumer sector, this remains stable and doesn’t exceed eight percent, according to the Central Bank. According to a forecast from the ACRA rating agency, in 2024, the share of overdue debt in banks’ retail portfolios will not exceed three to four percent. The online lending service Moneyman calculated that Russians who take out payday loans actually repay their debts early in 43 percent of cases.

Frank RG analysts confirmed that the level of overdue debt and indebtedness indicators aren’t increasing. They pointed out that the ratio of the retail credit portfolio to GDP doesn’t exceed 30 percent, whereas in developed countries, the figure can reach up to 100 percent. Ivan Uklein, director of bank ratings at the Expert RA agency, believes that demographic factors alone may be driving the increase in the number of loans: in his opinion, Russia’s “boomer generation,” unaccustomed to living on credit, is starting to make way for bolder millennials

Of course, there are also skeptics. The Communist Party (KPRF) described the level of indebtedness as “catastrophic” and called for a credit amnesty for families with children. The Central Bank has identified problematic mortgage practices, with banks issuing loans to borrowers who already had a high debt burden. Kommersant reported that problematic credit card debt is at an all-time high in Russia, though the publication clarified that this growth is proportional to the increase in the number of credit cards issued. And RBC pointed to the slow but steady growth of debts involving bankrupt or deceased borrowers, where collection is impossible.

Indeed, personal bankruptcies have increased. The Center for Macroeconomic Analysis and Short-Term Forecasting predicts this trend will continue, as current rates prevent borrowers from taking out new loans to repay old ones. According to a survey by the Higher School of Economics, 70 percent of large families in Russia have loans, often can’t save money, and are sometimes forced to forgo essentials due to a lack of funds. The Federal Tax Service also reported issues, stating that 1.3 trillion rubles ($15 billion) in payments for 2023 were overdue.

Is the government worried?

The main risk lies with borrowers who have a high debt burden, those who spend 50 or even 80 percent of their salary on loan repayments. Elizaveta Danilova, the head of the Central Bank’s financial stability department, explained: “When the economy is doing well, [when] there’s work, and wages are rising, people with a high debt burden manage to cope. During crises, everything changes. We saw this during the pandemic. There were many requests for loan payment deferrals and those with the highest debt burdens and off-the-books incomes faced the greatest challenges.”

Last year, the Central Bank set limits on how much banks and payday loan organizations can lend to high-risk clients. Under the updated rules, that amount can be zero in some cases. As a result, the share of new contracts with high-risk borrowers fell to 14 percent in the first quarter of 2024, down from 36 percent in 2022. Additionally, banks must now inform such borrowers about potential risks and difficulties, even if they plan to take out less than 10,000 rubles ($117). For payday loans, the total cost of credit, including principle and interest, has been capped at 292 percent per annum.

The financial authorities claim that the current debt burden of Russians “looks acceptable.” The focus is on gradually slowing down lending: preferential mortgages ended on July 1, and market rates should deter borrowers. Developers have reported that demand for new apartments has already slowed by 14 to 30 percent. Egor Susin, the managing director at Gazprombank Private Banking, wrote that similar trends can be expected in other areas: construction plays an important role in business loans, and consumer loans were growing because people needed to cover down payments.

A survey conducted by Sravni showed that two-thirds of Russians have put off buying real estate due to the end of preferential programs. The United Credit Bureau noted a slowdown in car loans after a recent peak, which was also driven by government support measures. VTB Bank expects a decrease in demand for consumer loans, and Russian banks’ profits have been falling for the second month in a row. Meanwhile, the Russian State Duma is preparing for a possible crisis. Deputies have passed a bill that will safeguard a bankrupt individual’s only home from being seized, even if it’s mortgaged.

Common Dreams

Oct. 2, 2023

The corporate forces that have been gunning for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau since its creation more than a decade ago are set to have their moment before the U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday, with the justices poised to hear a predatory payday lending group's challenge to the agency's funding mechanism on the second day of their new term.

The case—Consumer Financial Protection Bureau v. Community Financial Services Association of America, Limited—poses an existential threat to the CFPB, which has aggressively pursued corporate criminals under the leadership of director Rohit Chopra, who has been dubbed "Wall Street's most hated regulator."

Depending on the scope of the Supreme Court's decision, the outcome of the case could have consequences that reach far beyond the consumer agency's budget, potentially throwing the U.S. mortgage market into chaos and undermining other regulatory agencies and federal programs—including Medicare and Social Security.

"How the court rules, and the relief it orders, will have enormous implications for the future of the agency, the validity of its past rules and enforcement actions, and its ability to continue protecting consumers against fraud and abuse in the sale of a broad range of financial products and services, from payday loans to mortgages and credit cards," Stephen Hall, legal director and securities specialist at Better Markets, said Monday.

"The case also threatens the viability of other critically important agencies that have essentially the same funding structure that fuels the CFPB, including the Federal Reserve and the other banking regulators," Hall added.

Last year, 5th Circuit Court of Appeals—a federal panel composed entirely of judges appointed by former President Donald Trump—ruled that the CFPB's funding structure is unconstitutional. Unlike other federal agencies, the CFPB's funding comes from the Federal Reserve system, not congressional appropriations, making it less subject to annual political fights and right-wing austerity sprees.

The CFPB appealed the ruling, which was authored by a judge who received donations from the banking industry when he was a Mississippi state lawmaker.

As The New York Timesobserved Sunday, the 5th Circuit didn't just take aim at the CFPB's funding mechanism.

"It concluded that all actions taken by the bureau in its 12-year existence should be 'rewound,'" the newspaper reported. "If the Supreme Court agrees that the bureau's funding is improper, it could, at minimum, force the agency to rely on congressional appropriations. Or the court could follow the 5th Circuit's suggestion and obliterate everything the agency has done to date."

The plaintiffs in the case, which brought their challenge in response to a CFPB rule targeting the abusive activities of payday lenders, contend that the bureau's funding structure violates the Constitution's appropriations clause because it falls outside the annual congressional appropriations process—a claim that legal experts say is both "wrong" and "incredibly dangerous."

Such reasoning, if accepted by the U.S. Supreme Court, "would invite challenges to a host of other federal financial regulators and could wreak havoc on the nation's economy," Brianne Gorod, Brian Frazelle, and Alex Rowell of the Constitutional Accountability Center argued last year.

"And nothing in the law requires this result: The decision is at odds with constitutional text and history, Supreme Court precedent, and long-standing historical practice," they added.

Last week, the watchdog group Americans for Financial Reform (AFR) stressed that "all bank regulators and numerous other agencies and programs likewise rely on funding outside annual appropriations, such as Social Security and Medicare."

"If the Supreme Court does not turn back this unprecedented interpretation of the Constitution, it will put all of these government agencies at the mercy of the increasingly unpredictable annual appropriations process," said Elyse Hicks, consumer policy counsel at AFR. "The gears behind important financial regulatory and rulemaking work would grind to halt any time Congress reached a budgetary impasse. The judiciary too could find itself unable to meet its financial obligations during a government shutdown."

The Usury Suspects, Part 3: Tivol’s ex-pres knows where the real money is

On the cover of Ingram’s last month was a man named Steve Mitchem. The business publication was honoring him with one of its “Local Heroes” awards for philanthropic contributions — Mitchem has given $160,000 to the Down Syndrome Guild of Greater Kansas City over the past three years.

Mitchem has led an interesting life. He moved to Kansas City in the early 1980s to pursue graduate studies at Nazarene Theological Seminary. He then worked as a traveling evangelist for two years before settling in locally as a full-time minister at the Church of the Nazarene. In 1990, Mitchem went secular, at least professionally. He retired as a minister and joined Tivol, the luxury jewelry company, as an associate at its retail space on the Country Club Plaza. He rose through the ranks and was named president of Tivol in 2005.

Here in Kansas City, that’s a powerful, and surely quite lucrative, gig. Yet Mitchem left Tivol two years after being appointed to the post. A story at the time in JCK, a trade publication covering the jewelry industry, reported that he was resigning to “join his son in his loan business.”

About that loan business: Technically it is dozens of separate companies, with many different names, but it adds up to one of the largest online payday-lending operations based in Kansas City, according to several individuals with ties to the industry.

“Steve was working down at Tivol on the Plaza, and these payday guys kept coming in every other month and buying Rolexes,” a source tells The Pitch. “He figured out that they were basically printing money doing their online-lending businesses, and he wanted in on it. So first, he set his son up in the business. Then he quit Tivol and joined him.”

Filings with the secretary of state’s offices in Missouri and Kansas, plus a couple of lawsuits, help back up that account. In December 2006, Mitchem’s son, Josh Mitchem, filed articles of incorporation in Missouri for a company called Platinum B Services. In 2012, Dustin McDaniel, the attorney general of Arkansas, brought a lawsuit against that company and PDL Support LLC, another company controlled by Josh Mitchem.

In the suit, McDaniel alleged that Josh Mitchem and his companies controlled a variety of LLCs, purportedly based in the West Indies federation of St. Kitts and Nevis, that were engaged in lending over the Internet to Arkansas citizens at interest rates as high as 644 percent. Arkansas law caps rates on consumer loans at 17 percent.

“The purpose of these LLCs is to make it appear as if the Defendants are not the actual payday lenders and to otherwise shield Defendants from liability from lawsuits such as the one brought by the Attorney General in this case,” the lawsuit states. “The Defendants make the decisions concerning all lending operations from their offices in the Kansas City, MO area.”

The Arkansas attorney general’s office also produced evidence that Josh Mitchem responded to consumer complaints mailed to his company by requesting that correspondence be sent to an address in Charlestown, Nevis — despite the fact that his return letters were postmarked in Kansas City.

In the settlement that was reached, Josh Mitchem denied any wrongdoing but agreed to stop lending in Arkansas and pay $80,000 to the state.

More recently, Josh Mitchem was named in a class-action RICO complaint brought in California against about two dozen players in the payday industry (including MoneyMutual LLC and its spokesman, talk-show host Montel Williams). In it, Mitchem’s company Rare Moon Media is accused in that state of unlicensed lending and of negotiating and signing marketing contracts on behalf of unlicensed lenders.

Rare Moon Media was incorporated in Kansas in 2010. In 2011 and 2012, its filings with the secretary of state list Josh Mitchem, Steve Mitchem and Jeremy Shaffer, among others, as the primary stakeholders. Shaffer replaced Steve Mitchem as general manager at Tivol when Mitchem was promoted to president.

Jeffrey Wilens, the plaintiffs’ attorney in the RICO suit against Rare Moon Media, says, “The business address for Rare Moon Media is the same West Indies business address as several other lenders making unlicensed loans in the state of California, such as SCS Processing and Everest Cash Advance. The company is either consulting companies who make illegal loans, or it is simply making illegal loans by itself and pretending to be a consultant of some kind. Either way, the service it provides is to aid, abet and facilitate criminals breaking the law in the state of California.”

Steve Mitchem told Ingram’s that he splits time between his two homes: One off Ward Parkway in Kansas City, the other in St. Thomas, of the U.S. Virgin Islands. The latter address allows his various business entities (Mitchem Holdings, according to the article) to more comfortably avoid regulatory scrutiny and taxation by the U.S. government.

“There are some of us who have been blessed and are fortunate enough to be able to give, and quite frankly, I believe we have that responsibility to get involved financially,” Steve Mitchem told Ingram’s of his philanthropy. “Some people can’t do that. I’m one of those guys who’s fortunate and can do that.”

It's 4 weeks ago and after entering my bank account twice and paying $291 each time I still had to pay them $1,261 to get out of my bank account Where are these criminals from?” a victim of River Valley Loan online.

Please stop all dealings with River Valley to save your life and hard-earned money. Working for money is tedious, so put money and the value of life first before exposing your data to "money seekers" online.

River Valley Credit Union

River Valley Credit Union offers a variety of products and services, including checking, savings, IRAs, credit cards, home loans, mortgages, auto loans, personal loans, online banking, and more. Founded in 1967, River Valley Bank has assets totaling $1 billion along with deposits totaling $1 billion, classifying it as a medium-sized bank. River Valley Bank, located in Wausau, Wisconsin, does not have the customer service of other banks. It is a conventional brick-and-mortar bank, which means easier access to service employees in a brick-and-mortar location, in addition to its online and mobile presence. With a rating of 4.1 out of 5 stars, River Valley Bank should be firmly in the running for your choice of bank. River Valley Bank has a full range of banking products, including savings accounts, checking accounts, money market accounts, CDs, IRAs, mortgage products, and credit cards. River Valley Bank has a fair savings rate, so you can find higher rates at other banks. The bank's standard checking account has a monthly fee of $5.00, which is acceptable compared to the national average. Why use checking and savings accounts with one bank? The fast transfer between the two accounts allows you to still get better interest rates on your savings account and still spend money on your checking account.

Quality of service

River Valley Bank is a traditional bank, with a total of 18 branches in Michigan and Wisconsin. It also provides access to mobile apps and web apps for a simple mobile banking experience. You don't have 24-hour customer service with real service people. You can get help during their customer service hours, which are 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. m. to 11 p.m. m.

You can use the River Valley Bank app to manage your accounts by checking monthly statements, transferring funds, and contacting support agents. River Valley Bank earns an excellent customer satisfaction rating because of relatively few complaints filed with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), a government financial agency that protects consumers in the financial industry.

Prices

With a savings rate of 0.03%, River Valley Bank ranks below average compared to other US banks. River Valley Bank's one-year CD earns 0.35% and the five-year CD earns 1.51%, while the money market account with the highest yield has a rate of 0.05%. It has a fair savings rate, which means that other popular banks have higher rates. Think about other options to earn more from your deposits.

Rate

River Valley Bank generally has low fees compared to the average US bank. Their checking account has a monthly fee of $5.00, which makes it slightly worse for anyone looking for a hassle-free account. For those who frequently withdraw money, River Valley Bank is ideal as it offers no ATM fees.

How do you know that online loans are legit?

How can you identify a legit loan pool online? First of all, check your details i.e. your email and location (address) not physically online. Take the time to read reviews about them online before making a deal. Make sure you get proof that they are properly registered. BE CAREFUL, READ BETWEEN THE LINES FOR THE LEGIT PROOF!

The CFPB released a special edition of our Supervisory Highlights that reports on unlawful junk fees uncovered in deposit accounts and in multiple loan servicing markets, including mortgage, student, and payday lending. These unlawful fees corrode family finances, force up families’ banking and borrowing costs, and are not easily avoided – even by financially savvy consumers.

Bank account deposits

Auto loan servicing

Mortgage loan servicing

Payday lending

Student loan servicing

Supervisory examinations review whether companies are complying with federal consumer financial protection law. When CFPB examiners uncover problems, they share their findings with companies to help them remediate violations. Typically, as with many of the instances identified within today’s report, companies take actions to fix the identified problems. For more serious violations or when companies fail to take corrective actions, the CFPB opens investigations for potential enforcement actions.

Drivers:

Rising underbanked population - With limited access to traditional banking services, the underbanked population relies on alternative financial services like check cashing. Their numbers have grown significantly over the past decade.

High fees and interest rates - Check cashing services are able to charge high transaction fees, interest rates, and surcharges because underbanked consumers have few affordable alternatives. These lucrative fees drive industry growth.

Convenient locations and hours - Check cashers are located in areas close to the underbanked and offer extended hours on evenings and weekends when traditional banks are closed. This expands their potential customer base.

Lack of direct deposit - Many underbanked workers are paid by paper check rather than direct deposit. This creates an ongoing need for check cashing services.

Restraints:

Regulatory changes - Efforts to regulate check cashing fees and practices constrain industry growth. Many states now enforce fee caps.

Growing digital payments - As underbanked consumers adopt mobile banking and digital wallets, they rely less on check cashing services for basic transactions.

Bank branch expansion - Major banks are expanding branches to more low-income neighborhoods, providing greater competition.

Recession vulnerability - Check cashing revenues fall significantly during economic downturns when underbanked workers face unemployment.

Global Digital Lending Market is Estimated To Witness High Growth Owing To Increasing Adoption of Online Loans and Rising Trend of Peer-to-Peer Lending

The global digital lending market is estimated to be valued at USD 334.7 million in 2021 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 26.9% over the forecast period 2022-2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.

A) Market Overview:

Digital lending refers to the process of lending money through online platforms or mobile applications. It eliminates the need for traditional banking methods and offers convenient and efficient loan solutions to borrowers. The key products associated with the digital lending market include online payday loans, peer-to-peer lending, crowdfunding, and online installment loans. These platforms offer quick loan approvals, flexible repayment options, and competitive interest rates.

B) Market Dynamics:

1) Driver: Increasing Adoption of Online Loans

The growing adoption of online loans is one of the major drivers for the digital lending market. Consumers are increasingly preferring online loan platforms as they offer convenience, speed, and transparency. Online loan applications can be completed within minutes, and borrowers can receive funds directly into their bank accounts. This eliminates the need for lengthy paperwork and multiple visits to the bank. The online loan process also provides easy access to loans for individuals who may not have a good credit score or are overlooked by traditional lenders.

2) Trend: Rising Trend of Peer-to-Peer Lending

Peer-to-peer lending, also known as P2P lending, is gaining traction in the digital lending market. It connects borrowers directly with investors through online platforms, eliminating the need for intermediaries like banks. P2P lending offers attractive interest rates for borrowers and higher returns for investors. It also provides an opportunity for individuals to lend money and earn interest on their idle funds. The decentralized nature of P2P lending platforms ensures transparency and reduces the cost of lending, benefiting both borrowers and investors.

C) Market Key Trends:

One major key trend in the digital lending market is the integration of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). These technologies enable lenders to assess creditworthiness, predict default rates, and personalize loan offers based on individual borrower profiles. For example, AI algorithms can analyze vast amounts of data to make accurate lending decisions and identify potential risks. This trend is revolutionizing the lending process by making it faster, more efficient, and less prone to human error.

D) SWOT Analysis:

Strengths:

1) Increasing adoption of online loans

2) Rising trend of peer-to-peer lending

Weaknesses:

1) Lack of physical presence and face-to-face interaction

2) Concerns regarding data security and privacy

Opportunities:

1) Growing demand for small business loans

2) Expansion of digital lending services in emerging economies

Threats:

1) Regulatory challenges and government interventions

2) Competition from traditional banking institutions

E) Key Takeaways:

- The global Digital Lending Market is expected to witness high growth, exhibiting a CAGR of 26.9% over the forecast period, due to increasing adoption of online loans and the rising trend of peer-to-peer lending.

- In terms of regional analysis, North America is expected to be the fastest-growing and dominating region in the digital lending market. The region has a well-established fintech ecosystem, favorable regulatory environment, and high smartphone penetration rate, contributing to the growth of digital lending platforms.

- Key players operating in the global digital lending market include On Deck Capital Inc., Lendingclub Corp., and Social Finance Inc. (SoFi). These players are focusing on technological advancements, strategic partnerships, and expanding their product portfolios to gain a competitive edge in the market.
