** Brokerage KBW sees limited impact on debt collectors should U.S. President Donald Trump's proposal to cap credit card interest rates at 10% become effective

** Such a move could push subprime borrowers to access credit in other markets such as unsecured loans and buy now, pay later (BNPL)

** "Since these other markets also create receivables for the debt collection industry, we would expect there to be some offset to potentially slower growth in credit card receivables" - KBW

** Debt collectors such as Jefferson Capital JCAP.O purchase and manage charged-off and bankruptcy receivables

** Analysts say Trump's proposal would require legislation and has slim odds of passing
