A model of pairwise credit

Article Abstract:

Credit transactions have been depicted at pair-wise activities which have several readily observable characteristics. These characteristics include the existence of trust and a strong sense of mutualism between debtors and creditors. It was also observed that credit transactions facilitate trade and that as the number of debtors increases, creditors increasingly try to ration credit.

The introduction of the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 made the cost of filing bankruptcy more burdensome to debtors and forces some debtors to repay from post-bankruptcy earnings.
