摘要

卡法案》限制消费者信用卡发卡机构提高利率的能力。我们研究了该法案是否会影响发卡机构根据其他贷款机构在信用卡招标中提供的利率变化而调整提供利率的程度--价格反应能力。以小型企业卡为对照组，我们发现该法案实施后价格反应能力显著下降。这种下降主要集中在其他贷款机构降低利率而不是提高利率上，而且在次级借款人较多的地区更为明显。这些结果凸显了监管消费信贷市场的一个意外后果。

Does the CARD Act affect price responsiveness? Evidence from credit card solicitations

The CARD Act restricts consumer credit card issuers’ ability to raise interest rates. We examine whether the Act influences the degree to which an issuer adjusts offered interest rates in response to changes in interest rates offered by other lenders in credit card solicitations—the price responsiveness. Using small business card offers as a control group, we find a significant decline in the price responsiveness after the Act. The decline is concentrated among other lenders’ rate reductions rather than rate increases and is more pronounced in areas with more subprime borrowers. The results underscore an unintended consequence of regulating the consumer credit market.
