Global analytics software leader, FICO, has announced that
Atlantic Bay Mortgage Group is the latest to adopt FICO ® Score 10
T, FICO’s newest, most powerful and predictive score, for its
mortgages not sold to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. Informative
Research will supply Atlantic Bay Mortgage Group with the new
credit score.
FICO® Score 10 T incorporates trended credit bureau data to
reflect consumer credit utilization over time, rather than at a
single point in time. By getting a more comprehensive picture of a
borrowers’ financial behavior, Atlantic Bay can make more informed
lending decisions, resulting in the ability to serve a broader set
of customers including first-time and underserved borrowers.
“FICO Score 10 T is a game changer,” said John Wines, chief
strategy officer at Atlantic Bay. “Its enhanced accuracy and
transparency will elevate our ability to serve a more diverse range
of borrowers and better support our customers in their path to
homeownership. This is a big step towards a more inclusive housing
market.”
FICO® Score 10 T provides even greater precision in making
lending decisions, helping lenders better manage credit risk and
default rates when extending competitive credit offers to
consumers. FICO Score 10 T may enable an increase in mortgage
approval rates of up to 5 percent as compared to prior versions
(without taking on additional credit risk) or can reduce default
risk and losses by up to 17 percent at a cutoff of 680. The
increased predictive power can also help lenders project cash flow
more accurately.
“We’re heartened to see FICO Score 10 T embraced by the mortgage
industry. FICO Score 10 T provides a more comprehensive view of
credit data to help lenders assess a borrower’s credit risk more
accurately,” said Joe Zeibert, vice president of Mortgage and
Capital Markets at FICO. “By adopting our latest score, Atlantic
Bay continues its commitment to stay at the forefront of industry
innovations. This forward-thinking approach enables them to better
meet the needs of today’s borrowers, ensuring that homeownership
remains an attainable goal.”
FICO is committed to assisting mortgage industry participants
looking to transition to its most current model, FICO® Score 10 T.
The FICO Score Migration Resource Center provides a detailed
guide to support organizations through their credit score
transition with key planning steps and activities, in addition to
implementation best practices.
