Getting Credit

This topic explores two sets of issues—credit information registries and the effectiveness of collateral and bankruptcy laws in facilitating lending.

The table below shows the main indicators, which include:

• a Legal Rights Index, which measures the degree to which collateral and bankruptcy laws facilitate lending,
• a Credit Information Index, which measures rules affecting the scope, access, and quality of credit information,
• public credit registry coverage, and
• private credit bureau coverage.
