For the first half of 2024, the fast loans reached over 3 billion euros, according to the Bulgarian National Bank (BNB). In comparison, at the end of June 2023, the granted quick loans totalled 2.5 billion euros. According to the BNB, this is a rise of over 22%. For a year, Bulgarians have taken half a billion euros more. The share of quick loans for 2017 was EUR 1.4 billion.
For 6 years, the money distributed in the form of quick loans has increased by more than 120%. The recipients are mostly households - 70%, as they cover consumer needs with them. 91% of loans have a repayment term of more than 1 year.
The Consumer Protection Association calls on the next Parliament to adopt the measures approved by the European Parliament regulating quick loans and protecting consumers from falling into over-indebtedness, both to banks and to quick loan companies.
