22 4.0 Credit Scoring Use Case Situation A small loans provided with wide network was making manual decision in face to face meeting. Decisions were made manually under wide guidelines. Customers would take multiple loans each year, often with 2 loans running in parallel. What we did We introduced customer management system and behavioural score. On each cycle point a score and maximum limit was calculated and 3 possible recommended new loans made for those customer which were eligible by the system rules. The result Client facing staff appreciated the support and guidelines. Benefits were seen in both; Increased sales where sales staff too conservative reduced losses to higher risk customers whose relationship with the staff made it difficult to say no

23 4.1. Risk Mitigation Credit Assessment can be done before lending out loans using Financial Data and Alternative Data and such as: Demographic Data Social Data Mobile Data

24 4.2. Value of Credit Scoring Risk Assessment Product Offer Score Overall Risk Default Probability Odds Product Name Suggested Loan Amount Suggested Collateral Annuity

25 4.3 Impact of Credit Scoring Credit Scoring Tools assists in cleaning the assets by eliminating borrowers that are not credit worthy and may effect the portfolio delinquency and default probability. Fewer calculations are needed for performing data search

34 4. Some advices 1. Do not copy-paste : what you need has to be tailored. 2. Take your time and assess the data you have in your MIS, you most probably already have all the data you need. 3. Do not underestimate your MIS : segmentation could be integrated in most MIS. 4. Segmentation is a useless tool if you do not use it continually and update it regularly.
