What we're seeing

The pause on federally-backed student loans came to an end recently and borrowers were required to begin making payments on these loans in October.  The data shows a big impact on account holders; the number of student loan payments grew 127 percent in October as compared to the previous month.

Takeaway & Call to action for FIs

Financial institutions should be well informed of account holders who have a new monthly student loan expense which, after more than 18 months of rising economic prices, could be a very stressful addition to personal finances.
