FICO® Score X Data
A consistent, predictive risk score using alternative data to help lenders expand their customer base with more confidence.
Overview
Lenders outside the U.S. now have the opportunity to extend credit access to millions of consumers who otherwise could not be scored responsibly due to insufficient data for those consumers in traditional credit bureau files. FICO® Score X Data is a flexible solution that can be delivered in countries through credit reporting agencies or on premises at the lender. Through our growing global partner network, FICO has the unique ability to leverage alternative data sources such as telco, mobile payment, and digital footprint to provide reliable credit risk scoring for consumers who can’t be scored with traditional credit bureau data alone.
