Expenses on the rise: the scope of expenses on credit is higher than the pre-war average/ShutterStock
Tali Hollenberg, Sheba's VP of Marketing, Business Development and Sales says: "For the first time since the beginning of the war, we have had a second week in a row where credit expenses are higher than the pre-war weekly average.
We attribute the continued increase in expenses to the increase in prices in the economy, which is reflected in some of the main consumption sectors, and also to the fact that the intensity of the war has decreased and the release process of reserve forces that return to work and contribute to growth in activity continues.
The data indicate that the trend of recovery in the tourism industry continues, and in particular things are supposed to increase in tourism by Israelis abroad, which is reflected in the increase in spending in the aviation industry and travel agencies."
