Banks and building societies were writing off almost £40m per day in family debts in the second quarter of the year, according to new figures.

A report from the Bank of England found that lenders wrote off as much as £3.5bn of debt between April and June, equivalent to £38.5million per day, the largest amount on record for a single quarter.

Credit card debts accounted for the largest proportion of that figure, with lenders writing-off £2.1bn of debt that they do not expect to see repaid. £1.2bn of the figure was attributed to overdrafts, personal loans and hire purchases whilst just £184m were written-off mortgage debts.

According to a study by Saga Equity Release, 17% of over 50s are left with very little money to enjoy their retirement once they have repaid their debts, while 41% of retirees find repaying their debts difficult, headlinemoney.co.uk reports.

However, more and more over 60s are now taking out equity release plans to unlock money from their homes so they can enjoy a `better quality of life in retirement`.

Figures show that 13% of over 55s are retiring in debt, and 40% of this age group have used equity release as a way to repay these – leaving them `better off in real terms` and free to enjoy their retirement.

Executive Chairman of the Saga Group, Andrew Goodsell, said: “This study dispels the concept that equity release is the last resort for those who have nowhere else to turn. We have found that people are increasingly likely to use equity release to clear debts, enabling them a better quality of life in retirement.”
