Luxuries, travel, and entertainment are taking a hit, with over 80% cutting back. More than 60% are dipping into savings or working extra hours to cover expenses. Major financial decisions, like buying a car or investing, are being postponed\u2014especially in the U.S.<\/li>\n<li>As mortgage rates rise, confidence in banks and financial institutions is falling, with 60\u201370% of homeowners expressing reduced trust. If financial institutions don\u2019t step in with supportive measures, consumers may look elsewhere for financial solutions.<\/li>\n<li>The economic strain from rising mortgage rates isn\u2019t just about money\u2014it\u2019s impacting people\u2019s well-being. Anxiety, stress, and feelings of powerlessness are common, with many struggling to maintain their quality of life.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_class=&#8220;mainpostimgbox&#8220; conditional_render=&#8220;%5B%7B%22value_role%22%3A%22administrator%22%7D%5D&#8220;][vc_column conditional_render=&#8220;%5B%7B%22value_role%22%3A%22administrator%22%7D%5D&#8220;][vc_row_inner equal_height=&#8220;yes&#8220; content_placement=&#8220;middle&#8220; el_class=&#8220;mainpostimgboxinner&#8220;][vc_column_inner el_class=&#8220;mainpostimgboximg&#8220;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8220;&#8220; css_params=&#8220;&#8220;]<\/p>\n<h3>In this Article<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"#anchor1\">Our Latest Sago Omnibus Findings<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#anchor2\">Behavioral Shifts in Response to Rising Mortgage Rates<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#anchor3\">How Rising Rates Are Shaping Financial Decisions and Trust<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#anchor4\">Where Do Homeowners Turn for Help with Rising Rates?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#anchor5\">Why This Matters<\/a>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"#anchor6\">Mental Health Under Pressure<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#anchor8\">Rethinking Financial Futures<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#anchor9\">Increased Spending Vigilance\/Adjusted Lifestyles<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#anchor10\">Feeling Powerless in a Shifting Economy<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#anchor11\">Strategies for Brand Success<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8220;&#8220; css_params=&#8220;&#8220;]Money makes the world go round\u2014but in the EU, <strong>bank lending keeps things moving<\/strong>. Whether it\u2019s buying a home, launching a business, or making a big purchase, loans are a huge part of everyday life.<\/p>\n<p>By late 2023, loans accounted for over 70% of GDP in most EU member states. In countries like Denmark, Sweden, France, Spain, and the Netherlands, the value of loans even exceeded the size of their entire economies. Mortgages and business loans made up 63% of all bank assets in 2024, showing just how critical they are to the region\u2019s financial stability. (Source: European Central Bank &#8211; ECB)<\/p>\n<p>In the <strong>US,<\/strong> the numbers tell a similar story. Total mortgage loan balances hit $12.25 trillion in Q4 2023. Despite rising rates and high home prices, the housing market remains central to the economy. By Q3 2024, American households held $34.9 trillion in real estate equity &#8211; 72.4% of all residential real estate value. This marks a $2.5 trillion increase from the previous year, even with a $400 billion dip compared to the previous quarter. Housing continues to reflect and shape the broader economic picture.

But not everyone has had the same experience. <strong>Homeowners in France<\/strong> reported the least impact across the 6 markets, likely due to<strong> long-term fixed mortgage rates and flexible financing options<\/strong> offered by institutions and the government. This stability has helped shield them from short-term fluctuations.<\/p>\n<p>However, roughly one-third of all mortgage owners generally had to make some or other trade-off, across the board.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8220;9004111222027182&#8243; img_size=&#8220;full&#8220; alignment=&#8220;center&#8220; style=&#8220;vc_box_rounded&#8220; css=&#8220;&#8220; css_params=&#8220;&#8220;][vc_column_text css=&#8220;&#8220; css_params=&#8220;&#8220;]<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"anchor2\">Behavioral Shifts in Response to Rising Mortgage Rates<\/h3>\n<p>Rising mortgage rates aren\u2019t just affecting monthly payments\u2014they\u2019re reshaping respondents\u2019 spending habits in a big way.<\/p>\n<p>Across all markets, spending on<strong> luxuries, entertainment, and holidays<\/strong> took the hardest hit, with over 80% of respondents cutting back in these areas.<\/p>\n<p>More than<strong> 60% had to dip into their savings or investments<\/strong> just to keep up with household expenses.

And honestly, who can blame them? When rates go up, so do frustrations.<\/p>\n<p>This dip in trust could be a wake-up call for financial institutions.

And here\u2019s the thing: brands and financial institutions have a real opportunity to step up and make a difference.<\/p>\n<p>Market research helps businesses and institutions stay connected to what people need and find better ways to navigate an uncertain future.<\/p>\n<p>Brands play a pivotal role in consumers\u2019 lives, especially in times of hardship, both from a financial as well as a mental well-being aspect. Insight into what consumers want and how they want brands to communicate with them, is vital right now.<\/p>\n<p>Some simple strategies for brand success in these turbulent times include:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Help consumers make smart trade-offs.<\/strong> Everyone is tightening their budgets, so brands that offer real value for money (think discounts, bundles, or flexible pricing) can win loyalty.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Connect on a human level.<\/strong> A little empathy goes a long way. Showing that your brand understands financial pressures, whether through messaging, support programs, or even just helpful content, can build trust and connection.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Re-emphasize the value of community<\/strong>, family, and the reliance on brands to ease the stresses of everyday life. Taking the \u2018hardship\u2019 out of \u2018hard,\u2019 can lighten the pressure being felt by consumers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Offer flexible financial solutions.<\/strong> Whether temporary relief programs, payment flexibility, or bridge financing, giving consumers a way to manage short-term pressures can earn long-term loyalty.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stay on top of shifting consumer needs.<\/strong> The best way to support customers? Keep listening.
