Callcredit s generic scorecards are a great way of quickly setting up a robust strategy using an out-of-the-box solution and are being used by a large number of our Short Term and Alternative Lending customers. The scorecards use fields from our Bureau Summary Block and can easily be coded up client-side using the instructions provided in the documentation. SHORT-TERM SCORECARD Specifically designed for our Short Term lending clients, this score has been built using only single payment loans of approximately one month in length. The score-building process involves analysing each concept in isolation to evaluate how predictive they are, before passing through coarse classing, variable clustering, and logistic regression. OUR CONSULTANCY TEAM HAVE CREATED SCORECARDS FOR A NUMBER OF OUR SHORT TERM AND ALTERNATIVE LENDING CUSTOMERS MID-TERM SCORECARD To enable our clients in mid-term lending to make informed decisions that use the full depth of our data, our consultancy team have created a score built using only loans from this sector and the same method is used as for our short-term scorecard. CUSTOMISED SCORECARD BUILD Our consultancy team are able to use your historic good, bad, and declined customers or use our data extract to create a scorecard specific to you.

10 POST DECLINE ANALYSIS OPTIMISE YOUR ACCEPTANCE RATES AND MAKE SURE YOU ARE DECLINING AND ACCEPTING THE RIGHT PEOPLE Do you have the correct acceptance criteria? Are the applicants you decline taking loans elsewhere? If so, are they defaulting on these loans or are they paying them back? Callcredit can run your declines against our SHARE database and return the data to enable you to analyse your applicant s performance elsewhere. By sharing this analysis with you we can help you to fine tune your acceptance criteria and ensure you are accepting and declining the right people. Callcredit will carry out retrospective analysis on a sample of the client s declined portfolio, both at the point of application and at a specified outcome post decline (typically 3 months). Following this a detailed analytical exercise will be undertaken to illustrate post decline performance and suggested strategies.

12 Market insight WE CAN PROVIDE A REPORT WHICH WILL HELP YOU UNDERSTAND YOUR TARGET MARKET Take the risk out of launching a new product and speed up the process of going to market. Significant changes in the market have prompted many Short Term and Alternative Lending providers to diversify into new products such as instalment and revolving credit. This can be a slow and resource intensive process, involving a soft rollout while the lender works on their strategy. Callcredit can help you get new products to market in the fastest possible time. The report we offer can help you to better understand your target market and set appropriate risk and fraud prevention criteria for new products. Using anonymous data samples we enable you to develop more accurate scorecards and policy rules before the product is launched. Having helped many clients through this process our expert consultants are ideally placed to work with you to refine your initial scorecards and rules to optimise performance. USE OUR MARKET INSIGHT REPORT TO SET APPROPRIATE RISK AND FRAUD PREVENTION CRITERIA The report provides: Applicant profile by lending group Loan values Customer demographics Age profiles SHARE data (active accounts by group, credit cards and credit activity) Short term loans (history of short term loans per group & number of lenders) Derogatory data (bankruptcies, judgments, insolvencies and defaults) Current credit lines and utilisation per group 11
