The research method used is qualitative with a descriptive approach. The source of the research is through observation and interviews with banks and debtors.

These factors include consumptive lifestyle patterns, online lending, online gambling, and the Covid-19 pandemic. This is due to unexpected changes in income or expenses, other loans or online loans, Covid-19 and online gambling, the ease of the application process, then finally shopping habits or consumptive lifestyles. Many customers are stuck in debt with high interest rates through other loans, causing difficulties in meeting credit installment payments. Meanwhile, the Covid-19 that has lasted for the past few years has worsened economic conditions, decreased income, and layoffs, increasing the number of bad loans. The impact of this increase in non-performing loans requires banks to increase the formation of CKPN to anticipate the potential for greater losses.
