The diversity of credit card pricing schemes, the heavy volume of solicitations, and the pace of entry by new competitors seem inconsistent with a general absence of competition. Moreover, the rapid development of competing sources of revolving credit—such as lines of credit secured by residential equity and overdraft credit lines on checking accounts—reinforces competitive pressures on the credit card industry. These considerations suggest that the recent high levels of bank card profits are unlikely to persist. Thus, longer-term profit experience seems to provide a more reliable basis for evalu- 1972 1976 1980 1984 ating the need for regulation of credit card rates. 1.
