Key Benefits
  • Manage risk with greater precision
    Lenders benefit from frequently updated score trend data to refine FICO® score usage, loan product guidelines and pricing strategies. Reporting is updated semiannually in partnership with Equifax.
  • Benchmark against industry trends
    Understand macro, industry and other population segment-level FICO® score trends, and compare these to the trends of your own portfolio and prospect segments.
  • Improve forecasting
    By identifying trends in the overall market, investors and portfolio owners can better forecast future losses to set loan loss reserves and establish portfolio value.
  • Uncover new opportunities
    Lenders can view score trends and performance by geographic area and loan product type. This provides insight into growth opportunities — and areas where expansion is too risky.
  • Respond quickly to changing risk trends
    Regular reporting allows lenders to evaluate risk shifts over time and understand how their portfolios compare to industry benchmarks. The access to frequently updated data and reporting is also invaluable to securities investors, rating agencies and regulators.

Features
  • Extensive reporting, exportable data — more than 30 combinations
    The service includes comprehensive reporting, including validation charts, alignment plots, characteristic trends, score distributions and score movement charts. Data can be easily exported to be incorporated into further complementary internal trending analyses.
  • Tailored, in-depth view of risk
    With pre-defined drop-down options, subscribers can easily customize reporting to view industry-wide trends, then drill down into finer customer segments. They can view reports by industry (auto, bankcard, mortgage), observation date, new vs. existing customers, and geographic region. For mortgage reporting, users can further refine reports by different vintages.
  • Compare multiple views side-by-side
    Subscribers can create two or more views in the same chart to compare, for instance, how performance has changed over time or varies by geographic location.
  • Information is recent and relevant
    FICO Score Trends data is updated on a semiannual basis, enabling keen insight into recent trends. The service also allows users to benchmark historical trends by including data as of 2005.
