CVSCORE

Reimagining credit for the


underserved

The
challenges

Credit scores play an influential role in a lender’s assessment of a potential borrowers’


risk of default. Traditional credit underwriting focuses on a limited set of data points,
such as bureau scores, bureau reports that look at various aspects of credit (e.g. credit
utilization ratio for a credit card) and (verified) information provided by the loan
applicant. However, credit bureaus cover just 20% of the adult population in India.
Therefore, institutional lenders are unable to expand the market for credit products
when depending on traditional bureau-based methods. A large segment of the
population is thus deprived of reasonably-priced formal credit.

CreditVidya’s CVScore amalgamates alternative data and traditional bureau reports


and uses advanced AI-based algorithms. It applies this superior method of credit
underwriting to two categories of individuals:

New-to- Those who have no credit history and a ‘thin-file’ at tradition-

credit al credit bureaus, i.e. low credit scores. They may also not be
covered by credit bureaus at all. The challenge here is accu-
rate assessment of both their ability to repay as well as intent
to repay an unsecured loan.

Old-to- This category of individuals has a bureau score and has

credit availed of formal credit in the past. When lending to this cat-
egory of customers, lenders are looking to reduce the rate of
default.

The CreditVidya
advantage

CreditVidya’s SDK is embedded in the app of the lender, and relies on data from the
applicant’s smartphone to make a far more accurate assessment of his/her credit risk
profile. Here’s how:

The SDK accesses over 10,000 data points gleaned from the applicants SMSes (only
commercial, not personal SMSes), such as utility bill payments, e-commerce transac-
tions, other financial transactions, as well as phone-related data around location, for
example. Our proprietary decisioning algorithm analyses this vast unstructured data
and depending on the risk appetite of the lender, either approves or rejects the appli-
cant.

Benefits SDK and API - based solution with zero impact on user
experience
