During this 2 hour webinar, we will examine your compliance obligations when using Credit Scoring Models. Here are some questions we will address; If we are we required to give out the credit scores to our customers through our Adverse Action Notices and our Risk Based Pricing Notices which methods/models are best for us? Can a consumer or a Financial Intuition legally improve the FICO score, and if so, what has the greatest impact? How does data (positive and negative) affect/effect scoring models? How do we avoid disparate treatment when using scoring models? How can we use credit scores to streamline the lending and checking account decision process? Can we get scores on Commercial Credit Applications? Does your customer really need a score over 780?

These are just a few of the questions we will answer in this informative session.
