TransUnion (NYSE:TRU) released a survey revealing that federal student loan borrowers facing potential wage garnishment may prioritize student loan payments over credit cards and personal loans. The study shows that between December 2024 and June 2025, delinquency rates among student loan borrowers increased significantly, with credit cards seeing a 479% growth in delinquencies compared to more modest increases in secured debt like mortgages (+20%) and auto loans (+67%).
As of July 2025, 29% of federal student loan borrowers (5.4 million individuals) were reported as seriously delinquent (90+ days past due).

TransUnion (NYSE:TRU) has released a comprehensive analysis revealing a significant correlation between rising payment-to-income (PTI) ratios and mortgage delinquency rates. The study shows mortgage delinquencies have increased from 0.89% in Q2 2023 to 1.27% in Q2 2025.

Credit card PTI ratios rose from 2.18% to 2.33% throughout 2023, correlating with increased mortgage delinquency rates in the following year.
TransUnion recommends quarterly monitoring of consumer credit data to identify emerging risks before they manifest in traditional credit scores.
