Global Credit Counseling Alliance
In August 2024, CCRS entered into Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with leading credit-counseling organizations in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. Together, we launched the Global Credit Counseling Alliance (GCCA) to establish a framework for mutual cooperation and information sharing.
Through this partnership, CCRS expects to deepen collaboration in key areas such as :
- Case studies on debtor support
- Household debt-relief policy and system improvements
- Innovation in credit-counseling services
CCRS will continue to expand global partnerships to strengthen financial inclusion, promote safe credit practices, and support sustainable financial recovery among vulnerable individuals.
