Case Study: Automated Solution Reduces Credit Bureau Disputes

A large, super-regional U.S. Bank with a diversified mix of consumer lending products wanted to improve credit reporting accuracy and reduce credit bureau disputes. They formed a credit bureau working group and received Reject & Error reports from four credit reporting agencies, but lacked a process to review files pre-submission or to report back on what was being actively addressed. Additionally, the client was preparing for an upcoming FCRA Audit.
