Who We Are

Global Debt Registry is a personal blog created and managed by Avery Harper, an independent writer based in Denver, Colorado.

Its purpose is to translate debt topics into everyday language for educational use. The opinions expressed are Avery’s own and not those of past employers or affiliates.

Information Accuracy Disclaimer

Numbers change, interest rates shift, and laws differ by location.

While each article is researched carefully, the information is offered as-is, with no guarantee of accuracy, completeness, or timeliness.

Financial Advice Disclaimer

Global Debt Registry provides general education, not personalized financial, legal, or tax advice.

Reading a post, downloading a calculator, or sending Avery an email does not create a client-advisor relationship.

Before making decisions that affect your wallet or credit record, consult a certified financial planner, attorney, or other qualified professional who can consider your unique circumstances. Nothing on this site should be the sole basis for any high-stakes decision.
