Sažetak
Credit cards have become one of the major ways for conducting cashless transactions. However, they have long term impact to the wellbeing of its owner, trough the debt generated by the credit card usage. Credit card issuers approve high credit limit to credit card owners, therefore influencing their credit burden. System dynamics model has been used to model behavior of credit card owner in different scenarios according to the size of credit limit. Experiments with the model demonstrated that higher credit limit approved on the credit card decreases budget available for spending in the long run. Therefore, governmental actions oriented towards legal control of credit limit could be justified.
