Risk-Based Scoring, Guarantors, and Responsible Lending Explained
At CedisPay, our credit model is built on a risk-based approach, utilizing both traditional and alternative data to determine creditworthiness. Our unique credit scoring system assigns a passing credit score of 80, with specific adjustments for different scenarios.
Security-Based Scoring
-
Lower Passing Score with Security: If you have a security like a Tier 3 pension asset or investment to back your loan, the passing credit score drops to 50. This allows you to qualify for a loan with a lower credit score when you provide security.
Guarantor Requirements
If you don't have a pension or investment to secure your loan, you'll need one of the following guarantors to qualify:
-
Non-cancelable debit agreement.
-
Employer letter verifying employment status.
-
Payroll deductions set up.
-
Evidence of assigned receivables (for business owners).
These guarantors serve as a form of security, reducing the risk of default
Guarantor Responsibilities
If you're asked to guarantee someone's loan, it means the borrower's risk of default is high. As a guarantor, you should ensure:
-
You have a better credit profile than the borrower.
-
You earn more than the borrower.
Being a guarantor means taking on significant financial responsibility
Alternative Guarantors
-
Employer Letter.
-
Payroll Deductions.
-
Non-cancelable Debit Agreement.
These alternative guarantors provide security from your employer, payroll company, or bank, essentially acting as a guarantee
