Credit account delinquencies still low

The CFPB has posted the first in a series of blog articles documenting trends in consumer credit outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic for auto loans, student loans, mortgages and credit cards.

New delinquencies remain low and have not returned to 2019 Levels. After June 2020, new delinquencies for auto loan and credit card accounts began to rise gradually, although by December 2020, the share of open accounts transitioning into delinquency was lower or approximately the same as it had been prior to the pandemic.

New delinquencies for student loans also ticked up slightly since the summer of 2020, although the rate of delinquencies for these loans is still quite low, since a large share of student loans continue to be subject to automatic payment suspension under the CARES Act and administrative action by the Department of Education. Indeed, for student loans that do not appear to be receiving payment assistance, new delinquencies began rising in April of 2020.

New delinquencies on mortgages remained low from July 2020 through April 2021, likely reflecting the forbearances available under the CARES Act, which have since been extended through September 30, 2021.
