intensified in the coming months.

Press Release Body: London (Ask4loan) July 04, 2008: The ongoing credit squeeze for
households and businesses is going to intensify its effects as lenders brace for
rising defaults. The slowdown of the economy along with the credit squeeze are to be

a raft of data showing that a sharp correction in the realty prices is already
damaging consumer and corporate confidence. Lenders resorted their confidence on the
housing market. However the prices took a U-turn. Apart from this, the changing
economic outlook and changes in attitude for risk have contributed to the decline in
credit availability in the UK.

Many lenders are expecting that these factors will contribute positively to the
tightening in credit availability over the next three months. This survey was
conducted between May 27 to June 18. The survey has also showed that the default
rates on secured lending to households rose by more than anticipated in the second
quarter of 2008 and the lenders expect a further increase in the coming quarter.

ready to tighten loan terms further.


There is unexpectedly large falls in demand for credit for mergers and acquisitions
activity and capital investment, and from the commercial real estate sector. These
factors are going to make credit availability more tighter.
