Latest Federal Reserve Statistics on Consumer Debt Show...Rising Figures?
Orlando, Florida (PRWEB) April 03, 2014 -- According to the latest, 4th quarter 2013 figures from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on consumer debt and spending, Americans now owe a collective debt of nearly $12 trillion dollars in loans, mortgages, and credit cards. Household debt rose sharply by $241 billion from the previous quarter, making it the biggest jump, (quarter over quarter) since the third quarter of 2007. Student loan debt alone rose a staggering 11.5 percent. “This quarter is the first time since before the Great Recession that household debt has increased over its year-ago levels suggesting that after a long period of deleveraging, households are borrowing again,” said Wilbert van der Klaauw, senior vice president and economist at the New York Fed, http://www.newyorkfed.org/newsevents/news/research/2014/rp140218.html.
