Expanding Credit Access through Cash Flow Underwriting and Machine Learning

Traditional credit scoring models often fail to capture the true creditworthiness of millions, particularly underserved MSMEs and individuals who have thin credit files or lack of formal history. Utilizing real-time cash flow data -using real-time checking, savings, and transaction data – offers a more holistic view of a borrower’s financial health. Leveraging machine learning (ML) helps identify risk patterns that traditional linear models overlook, significantly expanding access without compromising institutional safety. This evolution represents a critical junction where technological innovation meets regulatory necessity, offering a scalable pathway to reduce the credit gap and foster a more equitable financial ecosystem.
