Effective Credit Scoring for the New Economy
April 21, 2010 at 1:00 PM EDT, 12:00 PM CDT, 11:00 AM MDT, 10:00 AM PDT
2009 challenged every credit scoring model out there. Find out what companies learned about their models and how to revise them to work in the new world economy. During the past 18 months, lending institution failures outside the equipment finance industry may have underscored the risk of over-reliance on automated scoring models in place of human judgment. Discuss ways to ensure that going forward your credit risks are low and manageable.
Participants of this web seminar will receive a copy of the Equipment Leasing & Finance Foundation's study, "How Good is Your Credit-Scoring Model?" in addition to session handouts.
There will be a dedicated Q&A portion at the end of the web seminar.
