In the last quarter we've seen a slight improvement in the risk profile of businesses being checked by CREDITFOCUS users.
In the first quarter of 2009, 20.5% of businesses checked were in the highest risk categories, by the second quarter this had fallen slightly to 19.9%. Equally, the number in the lowest risk categories had edged slightly higher.
Additionally, the average value of bad debts chased by each CREDITFOCUS user has fallen significantly from a record peak of more than £500 in the first quarter of 2009, to less than £400.
We wonder if this is because bad debts levels are falling, or could it be that growing confidence is making CREDITFOCUS users less likely to resort to pursuing their bad debts via solicitor's letters?
Could this be indicative of a recovering UK economy? It's far too early to tell, but at least the emerging trends in our data show that things are moving in the right direction. |
