"We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to build a strong financial future," said Rebecca Oakes, Vice President of Advanced Analytics at Equifax Canada. "By exploring new data sources like payday loans and the possibility of including this data in a consumer’s credit history, it could put the financial mainstream within reach for more Canadians and promote greater financial inclusion."
Equifax Canada is currently working to analyze data and understand its potential impact on credit histories and scores. Exploring new credit models and insights that leverage non-traditional data sources has the potential to create increased credit visibility for those consumers looking to rebuild their credit, those with thin credit files or those that may have been previously unbanked or unscored.
“Using alternative data could result in improved credit scores for those consumers with responsive repayment of payday loans,” explained Oakes. “Adding this data to the mix could paint a more accurate picture for those who don’t have data traditionally used to describe their financial health, which, in turn, could lead to better loan terms and interest rates from lenders in the future.”
Equifax Canada is committed to exploring new ways to drive critical financial opportunities to help people live their financial best and create financially inclusive communities.
