DUBLIN, Feb. 3, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Credit Scoring as a Competitive Differentiator" report to their offering.
Automated credit scoring, an innovation pioneered by FICO during the 1950s, serves the global credit card business well, but saturated markets need to develop new customer streams to fuel growth and offset attrition.
New methods to discover potentially creditworthy new customers outside the bounds of traditional credit scoring are emerging for both consumer credit and small business credit. Credit cards have a particular need to reach beyond traditionally saturated customer segments such as high net worth and mass affluent. Small businesses with limited credit history also have an urgent need for credit.
Credit Scoring as a Competitive Differentiator, discusses how traditional score functionality adapts to the current market and the potential of disruptive models.
"In order to maximize lending opportunities, lenders must stay at the forefront of credit scoring innovation," comments Brian Riley, Director of Credit Advisory Services and author of the report. "Some innovations are exciting but have not been proven through stressful business cycles, so be certain to balance risk and reward."
