In Q4 2021, household net worth hit a record $15.9 trillion, a startling $3.6 trillion more than pre-pandemic (2019/Q4) levels, according to a new report by RBC Economics.

The 5% growth in assets for the banking sector in the fourth quarter will likely be mainly offset by a decline in stock markets in the first quarter. However, the increase in household equity in real estate assets during the previous two years, which accounted for more than half of net asset growth (57%), has resulted from growing real estate values.

The poll indicates that household debt is also at a record high as a result of booming real estate markets and rising mortgage borrowing. Since the beginning of the epidemic, mortgage debt has grown by $44 billion, bringing the total amount to more than $300 billion.

Because of this, the carefully watched debt-to-income ratio increased to a record-high of 186.2% in Q4 and there was a decrease in disposable income as government pandemic help continued to diminish.

  • Despite low debt payments, debts are increasing and becoming more severe at incredibly low-interest rates. As a result, increasing debt levels require less income than otherwise.
  • At 13.8%, the debt payment to income ratio grew in Q4 but remained well below pre-pandemic levels. In total, 73% of all household debt comes from mortgages, which have fixed rates that do not increase as market rates rise.
  • Rising interest rates are predicted to increase the cost of debt servicing when home loans are renewed. However, as a result of rising earnings due to the tight labor market and high demand, disposable incomes are anticipated to increase as well. In 2023, the household debt payment ratio will be at its lowest level since before the pandemic.

Although Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has increased geopolitical unpredictability, already severe inflationary pressures are being exacerbated by increasing global commodity prices. Furthermore, the present emergency low-interest rates cannot be justified given the robust job market.

As COVID-19 restrictions restricted expenditures and government assistance boosted revenues, households accrued substantial savings throughout the outbreak. This saving hoard is expected to help safeguard consumer buying power even if interest rates increase in global inflation rates due to Ukraine’s conflict.

The financial safety net nevertheless has not been distributed equally. Even though lower-income households borrowed less, their savings balances did not rise considerably.

Credit Card Borrowing

As government aid for the epidemic has decreased, credit card borrowing has soared. Due to their higher debt loads relative to their income, households with lower incomes are also more susceptible to interest rate increases.

Additionally, those households spend a larger portion of their income on necessities like food and electricity, which are growing more costly as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Some people are still affected financially by the epidemic, though. So with pent-up demand from those at the top of the income spectrum supporting travel and hospitality expenditures, overall spending is anticipated to stay unchanged.

If you are one of those affected by this pandemic’s economic effect and continuously experiencing debt, National Debt Relief is a highly authorized leader that assists individuals like you in permanently eliminating their debt

I would just like to thank Suma for really making feel comfortable throughout this entire process. Everyone tells you to watch out for gimmicks, quick fixes, and everything else that comes with Debt. Ive had other companies who had made promises and under delivered. However Suma and her team are quick to provide the right answers and guide everyone in a way towards better credit. She has made it seamless with great communication and availability. I have personally referred her to several of my closest friends and i would recommend her to anyone else looking for consolidation.
