External Assistance to Solve Business Challenges
At one time or another, specialist assistance is required to solve a business challenge. These types of challenges benefit from external experts who can provide solutions based on aggregated perspectives gained from the industry.
Each member of our team has over twenty years of experience in consumer credit risk management and analytics. We have delivered assignments to all types of credit grantors, including banks, SMEs, retailers, digital lenders, micro-lenders, telcos and fintechs.
Originations Strategy Assessment
Our consulting team will engage with your credit team to fully understand your end-to-end credit granting process, with a specific focus on the following areas:
In order to validate your current originations strategies, and to identify opportunities for improvement, our team will analyse historical application data, outcomes and performance. This analysis will be performed using your own data, to ensure complete alignment with your application base.
All strategic elements of your credit decisioning will be data validated to determine the impact on your business success.
The deliverable from the Originations Strategy Assessment is a detailed presentation, and we will make a minimum of 5-10 recommendations for improvements to your credit products originations strategies.
These recommendations will be backed up with outcomes from analysis to ensure that they will maximise the profitability of your credit products.
Recommendations will be structured such that they are implementable in a champion/challenger testing framework if these tools are available.
Focus on Business Objectives
Roadmap to Digitisation
Many lenders have one single significant barrier to business growth. The reliance on manual credit granting limits significant expansion in the customer base and traps the business in high-overhead decisioning that operates at the whim of underwriting staff.
The Roadmap to Digitisation is focused on the following organisational objectives:
Increase application throughput to enable business scaling and growth
Reduce turnaround times to increase customer satisfaction
Make credit decisioning consistent and controllable by management
Improve credit portfolio quality
Our consultants will work with your team to identify current processes, obstructions to digitisation and opportunities to expand lending.
We will review credit assessment criteria, operational set-up, turnaround times and key performance indicators.
We will identify opportunities for improvement and recommend solutions to challenges that are currently holding back your digitisation plans.
The deliverable from the Roadmap to Digitisation is a detailed report, presenting the current and future view of the credit assessment process. This will include solutions that will remove bottlenecks and drive consistency at each step in the process.
All recommendations will be prioritised based on their potential impact on the business and their ease of implementation.
