This destroys one of the foundational resources for lenders trying to sort out credit-worthy applicants from ones committing 1st Party Fraud, during this window of inaccurate and outdated credit data. The article continues:
Lenders that are having a tough time spotting risky loan applicants are approving fewer borrowers for credit cards, auto loans and other consumer debt. They are also hunting for new data sets that could indicate who is in financial trouble and how much they need to set aside to cover soured loans.”

In other words, under which shell is the ball? However, the article points out one clue as to how lenders may find the ball every time. A “new data set that could indicate who is in financial trouble…” A new data set that can reveal the real-time intentions of the applicant – a predictive behavioral signal to dynamically inform appropriate verification measures, without discarding your existing fraud strategy; we can help with that.
Now, imagine being able to look under each shell before choosing the one with the ball underneath. That’s what we help online lenders do. Neuro-ID’s technology scientifically translates in-session behaviors from customer data you already have, to better understand the intent of the applicant and put you ahead of the game.
