The product in plain terms

Debt relief programs: The formal and informal routes out of unmanageable debt in Canada, and who is licensed to run them.

Debt relief covers formal routes such as consumer proposals and bankruptcy as well as informal arrangements, and the formal routes are administered by licensed professionals.

A consumer proposal and a bankruptcy are formal routes administered by a licensed insolvency trustee.

A debt management plan is administered by an accredited credit counsellor and is not a loan.

How New Brunswick regulates it

In New Brunswick, payday lending operates under a licensed provincial regime, and the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114) record a maximum cost of borrowing of $14 for each $100 advanced under SOR/2024-114.

Licensing for consumer credit in New Brunswick sits with the province or territory, and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada maintains the public list of provincial and territorial regulators.

One of the covered New Brunswick places is Richmond, counted at 1,456 residents in the 2021 Census.

The New Brunswick coverage runs to 256 places, from Moncton at 79,470 residents down to Buctouche 16 at 101. The product terms for a debt relief program sit on top of that position.

How a decision is reached

The purpose of the borrowing is recorded, though it rarely changes the price of a debt relief program.

A federally regulated lender applies its qualifying test before the amount on a mortgage-style product is confirmed.

An asset pledged against a debt relief program is valued before the amount is confirmed.
