Consumer Credit Reporting Services Procurement Category Market Research Report from IBISWorld has Been Updated
PRWeb - Sat Feb 14, 1:56AM CST
Consumer credit reporting services have a buyer power score of 3.4 out of 5, which reflects moderate negotiating strength for buyers. Demand for consumer credit reporting services has been rising in line with the recovering economy and growing borrowing activity by consumers. "Over the three years to 2014, buyers have continued to rely on vendors to gather and distribute historical credit information," says IBISWorld procurement analyst Kiera Outlaw. "The ongoing need to evaluate consumer credit, coupled with easier access to credit, increasing aggregate household debt and strengthening consumer spending has been causing service prices to rise." Prices are forecast to rise further in the three years to 2017. Although rising service prices have hurt buyers' purchasing power, buyers have been benefiting from a low level of price volatility during the recent period.
