Card lending has remained the dominant contributor to total gross lending within consumer credit in Argentina in 2024. Its large size reflects the fact that caps imposed by the Central Bank have historically kept maximum interest rates on credit cards lower than those levied on personal loans, making the former a more affordable method of borrowing. Additionally, persistently high inflation means consumers are often heavily dependent on these instruments for essential and emergency purchases.
