Predict Resilience
The FICO® Resilience Index is an innovative new metric designed to provide insight into a consumer's resilience to economic stress events. Regardless of the current economic environment, FICO Resilience Index can be paired with the industry-leading FICO® Score to support customer decisioning, portfolio management, and business planning activities to enhance banks' loan portfolio resilience and reduce the financial volatility caused by economic disruptions.

Using Stress-Adjusted FICO Scores for Portfolio Evaluation and Stress Testing
®
FICO® Resilience Index can provide new insight into how portfolios may perform in times of severe economic stress. In this session, we introduce new Stress Modeling Benchmark resources based on the FICO Resilience Index - and demonstrate how users can apply them to derive "stress-adjusted" FICO® Scores. We walk through two applications of stress-adjusted FICO Scores: (1) evaluating a portfolio's credit quality; and (2) calculating stressed portfolio loss rates by utilizing a stress-adjusted FICO Score in Probability of Default models.

Using FICO Resilience Index in Stress Testing
®
Stress testing is a valuable credit risk management practice that helps measure the financial impacts of severe economic downturns. Incorporating the FICO® Resilience Index into stress tests can make results more insightful, accurate, and actionable. In this session, we illustrate how active management of FICO® Resilience Index distributions to build resilience within consumer lending portfolios can over time support stressed forecasts projecting lower credit losses, higher profitability and greater capital coverage.

Bankcard Account Management: Managing Exposure with Resilience Precision
Learn how bankcard exposure management strategies can be enhanced and improved with the FICO® Resilience Index. How can you "right size" limits in the face of economic disruption while continuing to safely expand exposure for customers based on their relative resilience? This how-to session includes illustrations of both credit line increase and credit line decrease strategies, employing FICO® Resilience Index as a separate decision key or as a basis to calibrate FICO® Score inputs to decision strategies.
