FICO® Resilience Index

Overview
Discover and manage latent risk
FICO® Resilience Index can allow financial institutions to discover and manage latent risk within groups of consumers bearing similar FICO® Scores, without cutting off access to credit for resilient consumers. Leveraging traditional consumer credit data, it is designed to rank-order consumers by their sensitivity to a future economic downturn. It offers a simple, powerful complement to the FICO Score for an array of use cases.
