How Artificial Intelligence (AI) Improves Credit Underwriting

How can you as a creditor increase your lending portfolio without adding risk?

The answer is simple: Find the good borrowers which traditional credit scoring techniques oversees and rejects. And they do exist – traditional methods, such as logistic regression, has a hard time accurately classifying some populations, such as those with little credit history or people who have had past credit issues.

Traditional credit agencies usually categorize a applicant into a risk group between 1-10, which is a good indicator for many of the applicants. However each risk category will have some applicants who are misclassified – which should be classified in a higher or lower risk class. In sense, just because a person has a low credit score from a credit agencies it does not necessarily mean that he or she is a bad payer. And it goes goes to other way around as well, high scores doesn’t necessarily mean you are a good payer.

As can be seen in the picture above, an AI model will swap some of the borrowers to a higher risk class and some to the lower risk class. The end result is a credit decision model which helps you to either more approvals without increasing risk, or less risk with the same approval rate.
