| Market Structure |
The UK has long been Europe’s leading credit card market, but in recent years debit cards have made remarkable progress. In 2004, expenditure on cards exceeded expenditure on cash. In contrast to the rest of Europe, bank credit cards are a main source of consumer finance. Because consumers in aggregate are overstretched, credit card borrowing in the UK has been static since 2004. |
