Problem
Traditional credit decision-making relies on limited data, leading to inaccurate risk assessments and exclusion of potentially creditworthy individuals. This results in higher risk for lenders and restricted access to credit for borrowers, especially those with non-traditional financial profiles. The process is often slow, cumbersome, and relies on outdated socio-demographic criteria.
