Marqeta, the global modern card issuing platform, today released new data from a survey of European consumers on their attitudes and experiences of lending. The findings, which will be detailed in an upcoming report on the future of lending, shows many consumers still feel frozen out of the lending bubble, held back by outdated lending criteria and assessments – such as credit scores. Yet change could be on the horizon, with 59% of European consumers saying they are more aware of new lending options due to the pandemic, with 61% being more willing to use them.
