Price Chart
Executive Summary
Equifax Canada's Q2 2026 Market Pulse report shows rising commercial debt and financial delinquencies, with the 60+ day delinquency rate hitting a multi-year high of 4.0%. While supplier payment trends improved, the divergence between financial and trade credit stress signals cautious business conditions, which may modestly impact EFX's credit monitoring and data analytics revenue streams but does not represent a material earnings event for the parent company.
