RiskView™ | Program Benefits | How Does It Work? | Program Contacts |
RiskView employs proprietary scoring methodology based on public record and non-traditional consumer credit data, not credit bureau based data. Drawing on a powerful and proven combination of public records and other proprietary data sources, RiskView™ can expand your applicant universe by identifying and scoring customers, without depending on traditional trade line credit history. Public records and other sources offer significant decisioning power on underbanked consumers based on factors like:
RiskView uses a three-digit creditworthiness score (ranging from 500-900) to predict a consumer's credit risk and likelihood of the account becoming delinquent during the first 18 months after approval while also providing associated codes to indicate key factors driving the score. Higher scored applicants are considered more creditworthy. Moreover, RiskView is FCRA (Fair Credit Reporting Act) compliant.
Traditional credit data only scratch the surface. RiskView provides rich, new content and additional segmentation to give you a clearer picture of consumer behavior.
Over the past 10+ years, lenders have competed for the same customers covered by traditional data sources, resulting in saturated markets and eroding profit margins. But now we know millions of individuals aren't covered by traditional credit scoring due to a lack of credit information. These "thin-file" and "no-file" populations have been overlooked for lending opportunities due to a lack of credit history and could potentially be very profitable customers. Lenders are actively seeking these "underbanked" populations as a source of continued growth. RiskView™ overcomes this problem by using non-traditional data to accurately predict risk in populations not covered by credit bureaus. RiskView can score over 50 million thin- and no-file consumers, helping credit professionals assess this emerging credit market. By quantifying risk, financial institutions can confidently determine when to extend credit and approve new customers. Consumer lifecycle and lifestyle data are proven to be highly effective predictors of behavioral patterns and financial risk levels. Traditional bureau credit scores do not take these types of data into account and overlook a very large segment of the population. As a result, industry estimates show nearly 25 percent of U.S. adults are not adequately covered by traditional credit information, making it difficult for these individuals to qualify for loans. Traditional credit scores have major gaps. Traditional credit bureau risk scores only work for traditional consumers with plenty of credit history. Without adequate credit history, a credit score does little to tell you about the creditworthiness or risk of an individual. With RiskView™, you can:
