Equifax and its customers are aware of the challenges associated with making credit decisions for thin-file and credit invisible consumers. Now, with the number of recent layoffs, furloughs, and pay cuts, credit decisioning for thick files has become more challenging as well. Ignite LIVE will help attendees discover how to unleash the potential of alternative data, explainable AI, and various technology platforms to build confidence in determining credit decisions. Topics will include:

Building Credit Confidence: Better assess credit risk through the use of multiple data dimensions
Consumer Behaviour Insights: Recent changes in customer profiles and behavior so you can react more quickly
Beyond the Credit File: Why verified Income and Employment has never been more important to understanding the consumer, Ability to Pay is as important as Likelihood to Pay.
