Buy now, pay later (BNPL) loans have become more common over the past few years. This innovative financial product has the potential to disrupt the financial services industry by facilitating short-term credit access. Recent research suggests that BNPL use is common among young consumers and individuals with low credit scores, but it is present across all income and credit levels.

The lack of reporting has important implications for mortgage lending and homeownership. Join us as we discuss the evolving BNPL landscape and its future, as well as its implication for ensuring sustainable mortgage credit access.
