Company Description

Suffering from a fiscal near-death experience? Let CompuCredit resuscitate you. Subprime was the strategy for this company, not a category to be avoided. CompuCredit traditionally issued unsecured Visa and MasterCard credit cards to customers with low credit scores and charged them more for the risk; however, the economic downturn compelled the company to close most of its active accounts. Subsidiary Jefferson Capital Systems collects on debt other companies have written off. CompuCredit sold its 300 US microloan retail locations -- which provided payday loans under such banners as First American Cash Advance and First Southern Cash Advance -- to Advance America for more than $46 million in 2011.

    Competitive Landscape Brief

    Demand is driven by consumer income and demographics. The profitability of individual companies depends on the correct assessment of repayment likelihood and effective collections activities. Large companies enjoy economies of scale in securing access to capital. Small companies can compete effectively by choosing favorable locations. The industry is capital-intensive: annual revenue per worker is about $400,000. The federal financial reform law passed in 2010 could create a tougher business environment for consumer finance firms. New measures in the law include restricting credit cards companies from imposing interest rate hikes and fees, limiting payday loans, and discouraging auto title loans. The law also created a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) to take over consumer-protection responsibilities from other federal agencies. The sweeping regulatory reforms could fundamentally change the competitive environment of the consumer finance industry.
