Debt Accumulation

When your level of debt is higher than your financial capacity, you’re in a debt spiral.

We can help

40% of the insolvency cases we see at Jean Fortin are due to a debt spiral, which starts when your level of debt rises slowly, but surely. Monthly payments gradually take over a good portion of your budget until you are in the red. To cover this deficit, you need additional credit to supplement your income. New credit is like a second salary. This works until you realize that you are in over your head in debt, or until creditors refuse to give you access to new credit.

Possible solutions

There are different solutions to get out of a debt spiral before it is too late. The sooner you have a clear picture of your personal finances and your options, the better your chances of pulling through.
