It’s exciting to see more and more adoption of Underwriting driven by alternative data across the financial industry. The latest partnerships between FICO and Affirm confirm this trend. FICO will include Affirm BNPL data into their underwriting models - it shows that the appetite for alternative data coming from lenders is more than real today. Lenders are all looking for alternative data sources to enhance their credit scoring modeling and start underwriting people differently based on their background (not fitting one specific set of rules for everyone!) The natural evolution is to use: - Mobile data for the underserved - Gig economy data for mobility entrepreneurs - Tax portals data for general income verification - BNPL and Subscription bills data as proxies to boost credit score We're switching from a world where credit scoring rules allowed financial services accessibility to only a certain range of the population -> to another world where lenders are adapting to how consumers are producing data. What type of data can consumers produce on a daily basis? How can we leverage this data to make underwriting cover the majority of users? The reality is that lenders who have understood this shift will be more profitable and take more market share. Plus, they’re more innovative by creating new financial products based on different alternative data sets. At Rollee, we've been building the infrastructure to make this possible. The future of underwriting is about meeting consumers where they are - not where the traditional models expect them to be.
