Quality takes Center Stage

In the financial world, the term "risk-off" is often used to describe a market sentiment where investors seek safer investments, shying away from riskier assets. Currently, markets are indeed experiencing a risk-off moment, characterized by a flight to quality—an inevitable shift towards more secure and stable options. Interestingly, this risk-averse approach is not new to the credit card industry; issuers have been in a risk-off mode for over two years now.
