Increase in cases of bankruptcy
With the economic recession still continuing bankruptcy is becoming a common problem. The economic crisis has affected both the creditors as well as those who are in debt. The financial institutions are aware that in current scenario entire debt recovery is very difficult. So with financial settlements they are willing to recover as much as they can.
High number of debtors
The financial institutions have a large number of debtors. Amongst these debtors many are those to whom they have lent an unsecured loan in the form of credit card debt. In such condition they have no other option for debt recovery than to accept financial settlements.
Financial grants from the Federal Government
To boost the current economy the government is providing financial aids to both the debtors and the financial institutions. The creditors are using this extra incentive to cover their losses and are more flexible for financial settlements.

Financial settlement is considered as a better alternative to bankruptcy. It is also legitimate. For credit card customers the government has announced 60% of loan elimination.
