"Collection practices" on a narrow respondent set

"Collection practices" names only 37 companies, so filings cluster on a small respondent set rather than the whole market. Respondent breadth sits in the lower third of the indexed issue corpus. No single company exceeds 23.9% of these filings.

Because only 37 firms are named, compare company profiles before treating "Collection practices" as a category-wide pattern. The most common product category is "Credit card". Consumer wording drives the label, not a regulatory finding. See methodology for how CFPB complaint routing works.
