“…The finding is in line with the LC-PI theory that when income is lower than expenditure, the likelihood of over-indebtedness increases due to adverse shocks. Similarly, the finding concurs with Mian et al (2017) and Garber et al (2018) who contend that high levels of expenditure as compared to income increase the chances of over-indebtedness among households.…”

“…This effect is confirmed by several studies (that fail to consider the role of inequality). For example, politicians may enact laws and regulations to encourage bank lending (Mian, Sufi, and Trebbi 2013) or/and pressure state-owned banks or quasi-public (government-sponsored) entities (such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) to increase the credit supply (Fieldhouse, Mertens, and Ravn 2018; Garber et al 2020). Ahlquist and Ansell (2017) underscore the indirect effect of politics, that is, politics impacts the connection between inequality and credit expansion by shaping redistributive policies and welfare regimes.…”

Além disso, o montante total do endividamento pessoal cresceu quase cinco vezes, em termos reais, entre 2003 e 2014, antes de iniciar o período recessivo da economia brasileira (GARBER et al, 2018). Por fim, é importante sublinhar que esse problema ganhou tamanha monta que foi reconhecido oficialmente pelo Estado brasileiro, ao inserir capítulo específico no Código de Defesa do Consumidor para a prevenção e tratamento do superendividamento.…”

“…Além dos efeitos sobre a distribuição de renda, muitos estudos se debruçam sobre as consequências dessa transferência de renda sobre os níveis de crescimento econômico (GARBER et al, 2018;SUFI, 2020). Isso porque o período de maior expansão do crédito a pessoa física no Brasil foi imediatamente sucedido por um período de estagnação econômica, a partir de 2014, o que pode indicar correlações entre os dois eventos.…”
