The index of company Experian Serasa on default with payment by check, issued on Monday (21) showed decrease of 11.3% in the volume of returned checks with respect to offset, in comparison with July.
According to the survey were returned 19.6 per thousand checks cleared in the month of August, or 1.96% of the total. In July, the returns had reached 2.21% of the checks. The check is only considered bottomless, according to the Serasa, after the second return.

The "calendar effect" (the fact that August had fewer working days in July) also contributed.
