@thepropertyknight: #greenscreen South Africans may be battling a challenging economic environment, but many respond in a way that makes things much worse for themselves. South African banking clients have been distressed amidst sustained interest rate hikes since November 2021. However, consumers often wait too long to find a way out of their financial predicament and avoid approaching their bank. “Because consumers perceive banks as being driven solely by profit and just ‘after our money’, it is a common psychological trait for clients to shy away from approaching their bank – especially when they are facing financial difficulties or have missed a payment – because of a natural tendency to avoid a potentially distressing situation,” said Nozizwe Tshabuse, Nedbank’s Managing Executive for Client Debt Management and Recoveries. #superjules❤️ #fyp #realestate #property #southafrica #thepropertyknight #house #homecafe
