A new Attitude & Usage (A&U) Survey, conducted by Socratic Technologies, Inc. on behalf of Mercury® Financial, found that over the last year a majority of near-prime consumers wanted help to ensure they are doing the right thing to improve their credit. With nearly 36 million Americans in the near-prime market, this highlights a clear need for the financial support that Mercury® Financial provides to an often-overlooked sector.
