Summary/Abstract: Purpose - In this paper, where intergenerational loan and debt trends are investigated, credits received by X and Y generations from banks will be analyzed according to various factors. In the study, it will be investigated whether these two generations that were born, grown up and lived in different time intervals differed in the loans and services they received. The main purpose of the research is to examine whether it is rational to apply different generational allocation policies to each generation while determined credit allocation policies by banks or other lenders. Design/methodology/approach – In the research, the data of the Public Credit Registry (PCR) of a total of 250 people, including 125 X generation and 125 Y generation, who applied to a private bank operating in Ordu province between 1-Jan-2020 and 31-Mar-2020 will be examined and transferred to the SPSS Windows 25.0 program. Data showing the financial trends of the X and Y generations will be analyzed by using the Mann Whitney U test method through determined hypotheses. Findings - Empirical results indicate that it is not rational to apply differentiated loan allocation policies to the X and Y generations of banks and other lenders. We believe that it would be more appropriate to apply a same credit allocation policy for these two generations, which are highly similar in all factors. Discussion - We believe that giving retail loans with a uniform credit allocation policy without making a generation distinction will contribute to banks and financial institutions in terms of risk management and operational costs.
