According to Zhichun Finance APP, Morgan Stanley stated that this year, consumer credit in the USA has stabilized, with the default rate dropping to the lowest level in three years. By 2025, as inflation slows, real wages grow positively, interest rates decrease steadily, and lending standards become more reasonable, consumer credit is expected to continue to be supported.
Led by Jeffrey Adelson, Morgan Stanley Analysts stated on Thursday that they also expect a 'positive regulatory backdrop', and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) in the USA 'may pause regulation'. Adelson stated, 'We now expect that the late fee rules will either be revoked or unable to be adjudicated in court. The CFPB is expected to relax the establishment and enforcement of other rules.'
