Approach

The first step was to make a detailed questionnaire and study of the history of the credit bureau and any factors that could influence the data. Creditinfo made an in-depth investigation of the data quality. A review of each data item, how well it was populated, what data was stored in the system compared with best practice expectations. The data issues were discussed with the CIASA and issue understood. After exclusion of any incorrect data, a predictive scorecard was developed.

Result

  • An initial feasibility study revealed data issues and clarified the potential to develop a scorecard.
  • The scorecard was developed and validated successfully, then implemented via the Creditinfo Decision Engine.
