LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Cashfloat.co.uk, a London-based payday loan provider, has released a report titled “Who borrowed payday loans during the coronavirus pandemic”, which analyzes payday loan applications received during the first part of the coronavirus pandemic.
It found that payday loan applications fell by 52% during the first UK lockdown. Payday loan applications remained low until May 10 – when those unable to work from home returned to work and back to normal once the lockdown ended. The data also shows the volume of payday loan applications for the UK’s second lockdown. Interestingly, there was no significant change in payday loan applications in the second lockdown as in the first lockdown.
The full report is available for download on the Cashfloat website here.
A Cashfloat spokeswoman, Sarah Connelly, commented:
“It was very interesting to see that the volume of applications only dropped during the first lockdown, not the second. Could this suggest that there was a difference in the level of financial aid provided during the two lockdowns? Or wasn’t the second lockdown as bad as the first?”
Data for the report was collected by Cashfloat.co.uk and its affiliated websites. It analyzes data captured from just under a quarter of a million payday loan applications received over 12 months between March 1, 2020 and February 28, 2021.
