Key takeaways

  • Consumer-Permissioned Data Shifts the Credit Paradigm: Cash flow data helps assess creditworthiness in real time, offering a fresh perspective beyond traditional credit scores. This data allows companies to understand consumers' financial behaviors even when historical data is limited, helping businesses to craft policies for a broader range of customers.
  • Solving the "Cold Start" Problem: Companies need to implement strategies to overcome the challenge of implementing cash flow-based credit assessments without extensive historical data. By focusing on both operational needs and risk management, companies can ease into using new data sets and gradually improve underwriting accuracy.
  • Expanding Credit Access Through New Data: AT&T has implemented practical steps to introduce cash flow data into their credit decisions. Starting small with controlled tests, they aim to enhance customer credit offers while ensuring robust decision-making based on real-time financial insights.
  • Future of Cash Flow Underwriting: As the panel looks ahead, the consensus is clear: cash flow data will play a crucial role in the future of lending. By moving beyond FICO scores, financial institutions can offer more personalized and fair credit options, especially for thin-file or credit-invisible customers.
