Hi Jimmy, I heard you took a loan out from the bank a few years ago, how did they use credit analysis? I want to take a loan but what do I need to have with me to apply for it?
Oh I still remember it! it was a very complicated process. Come to my house and I will show the documents you will need and the experience I had.
So on that day, I went to the bank bringing these documents that I have on my hands and apply for a loan in which they led me to a loan officer.
Oh!! So these are the documents I need to bring!
The purpose of credit analysis is to determine the creditworthiness of the borrowers by quantifying the risk of the loss that the lender is exposed to.
It also helps the bank to decide if the loan size is reasonable and adopt to changing conditions so as to lower the risks of having bad debts.
Oh I see!!
However the process is very tedious and uncomfortable! The bank requires you be at the office for the interview and also share sensitive data with third parties!
It also requires paperwork which is not environmentally friendly and my payment history and current debt are not even grouped properly.
Oh no! That doesn't sounds good but thank you to for sharing with me! At least now I know what I need to bring and prepare for.
At the loan officer office
Hi! I am here to take a loan and these are my documents!
Hi Mr Tan, actually we do not need to use these physical documents anymore, our bank has improved our procedure and have developed a new way of analysing credit worthiness with AI and alternative data!
OHH! how does it work?
OHH! I see, this seems to be a much better way and it is so much more convenient!
With the use of AI in credit analysis on our clients it actually helps improve our risk prediction and also provide a more accurate data of a borrower's credit worthiness.
