Manage episode 356681889 series 3317846
As the cost of living continues to rise, more Canadians are finding themselves in financial trouble. While it’s normal to have some level of debt, it becomes a problem when it becomes unmanageable. According to a recent report from Equifax, the average credit score of Canadians is between 600 and 650. People with scores equal or above 650 are considered to be financially stable and those above 760 are considered excellent.
But what happens to your credit score if you file for Bankruptcy or a Consumer Proposal? How is your credit rating affected and how can you rebuild it?
Licensed Insolvency Trustee, Mary-Ann Marriot answers those questions and more. She also covers:
- How long it takes to rebuild your score
- The difference between your credit score and your credit worthiness
- Common mistakes made when rebuilding credit scores
- How often you should check your score
- Credit reporting services: Borrowell and Credit Karma
- Applying for credit after an insolvency and secured credit cards
