Just the Financial Facts

Just the Financial Facts surveyed an array of personal loan products, generally small unsecured loans, from various financial service providers in San Francisco’s Mission District. The first phase in the research process involved taking an inventory of all services offered by financial companies in the Mission. In the second phase of the study, the research team visited financial establishments and inquired about borrowing $1,000 to pay for a security deposit on an apartment.
