Personal debts reach R$ 2.07 billion and grow more than the number of defaulters in Niterói

Personal debts in Niterói reached R$ 2.07 billion and are growing at a higher rate than the number of defaulters, revealing a concerning scenario of over-indebtedness in the city. The story of Rodrigo Santos, an administrative assistant from the Fonseca neighborhood, illustrates how many families enter a debt spiral: when he took out a R$ 20 thousand loan in 2021 to pay off accumulated expenses, he started using the credit card to pay the loan installments themselves, creating a wheel that only increased his debt. The case highlights the need for financial education policies and support for the most economically vulnerable population.

Average Brazilian credit score drops six points in one year. Learn how to improve your score

The average credit score of Brazilians fell from 548 to 542 points between April 2025 and April 2026, according to the Serasa Score Map. The indicator, which ranges from zero to a thousand, measures the likelihood of the consumer honoring financial commitments and influences conditions such as interest rates, limits, and terms for obtaining credit. In Rio de Janeiro, the average was 535 points, below the national average. The decline was recorded in all regions of the country. According to Wesley Brandão, a Serasa specialist, there is no single cause for the drop, as the score is calculated based on various aspects of financial history, such as bill payments, delinquent debts, credit market experience, recent loan inquiries, active contracts, and registration information.
