BNPL impact on credit scores – a global presentation of a FICO study

Data is the fuel driving advancements in AI and enhancements to the customer experience, but connecting to and ingesting new data sources has historically been a lengthy and IT-intensive process. To fully realize the power of data driven decisions and stay ahead in the digital banking landscape, you need to be able to quickly and seamlessly discover, integrate, and validate alternative data sources without getting bogged down. 

 

In this session, experts will share strategies for taking advantage of valuable new data sets to augment your existing data streams and decisioning workflows, from real-time fraud orchestrations to streamlined account originations. They’ll showcase how their data is helping clients build more holistic views of customer behavior.
