Salon I

MBA has been leading efforts to reform the industry’s credit reporting and scoring process to drive competition, better data and affordability. For decades, the process of assessing a borrower’s credit history has remained fundamentally the same. Modernization aimed at improving predictiveness, enhancing competition and lowering costs, including the 2018 Credit Score Competition Act, have fallen short, leaving the industry reliant on the FICO Classic, the mandatory tri-merge and ever-rising costs. In this session, industry practitioners lead a conversation about MBA’s recommendations to adopt the latest credit scores and move to the single-file credit report option. Add your voice to the discussion, including risk implications and implementation challenges. Sponsored by Relcu.
