Essentially, if a borrower isn't paying their minimum payments, it should be classified as a default. There was however a rule change. Banks can offer the borrower to pay a smaller portion of the minimum and add the rest on to the total balance. As long as the lower payment is payed, it's not counted as a default. On the books it looks like they're paying the full amount. That's why default rates are flattening out even though they should be spiking.
