Alternative Credit Scoring

Scores thin-file customers from behavioral cashflow and app-usage data, delivering real-time credit decisions.

+20-40%Revenue from newly addressable segments
<200msCredit decision latency
Thin-fileApplicants scored credibly

Typical outcomes for this kind of engagement. Results depend on your data and starting point.

THE CHALLENGE

Across MENA and Africa a large share of the addressable market has no bureau file, so traditional scorecards return no decision at all and the applicant is declined by default.

  • Thin-file and unbanked customers cannot be scored by traditional bureau models
  • Large creditworthy segments declined by default rather than by assessment
  • Lenders competing for the same narrow band of bureau-scored customers
OUR APPROACH

CloudGate builds alternative scoring models on Azure Machine Learning using cashflow patterns, mobile money and wallet activity, app usage behavior, device and telco signals and repayment history where available.

  • Behavioral scoring from cashflow, wallet, app usage and device signals
  • Sub-200ms scoring API embedded directly in the application journey
  • Probability of default plus recommended limit and pricing per applicant
