Frequently Asked Questions

Top questions about automating business loan decisions

What are the benefits of scored lending for financial institutions?

Scored lending offers numerous advantages for financial institutions, including streamlined loan processing, improved risk assessment, and enhanced decision-making efficiency. By leveraging data analytics and automated scoring models, institutions can evaluate loan applications more quickly and accurately, reducing processing time and operational costs.

 

Scored lending is ideal for various types of business loans, providing financial institutions with a versatile tool to increase loan volume and capacity. It can effectively decision several types of loans such as lines of credit, equipment financing, and working capital loans. With sophisticated scoring models and data analytics, institutions can customize their scored lending strategies to meet the unique needs of different business profiles and loan categories.

 

The CFPB 1071 rule requires financial institutions to collect and report data on small business lending, promoting transparency and fair lending practices. Compliance with this rule enhances the credibility of financial institutions and provides valuable insights into lending patterns. Scored lending supports 1071 compliance by providing a standardized and objective evaluation of loan applications.

 

Scored lending enables financial institutions to operate more efficiently by automating processes, reducing operational costs, and mitigating risks. It also allows institutions to make quicker and more informed decisions, improving customer experiences and increasing market competitiveness.

 

Using data-driven scoring models, financial institutions can make more accurate assessments and better manage their loan portfolios. This approach increases the likelihood of timely repayments and decreases default rates, leading to a healthier and more profitable portfolio.

 

Small business scored lending integrates automated credit scoring models that leverage both traditional financial data and external data sources, speeding up the underwriting process, while providing a consistent approach to decisioning. We leverage FICO SBSS and also Experian IPv2 scores.
