Why behavioural insight matters

Lack of data high risk

Most SMEs, microbusinesses and first-time borrowers have no formal credit history. Traditional models read that silence as risk and turn good people away.

The challenge

Thin-file applicants are invisible to bureau-based scoring.

The opportunity

Behaviour, psychometrics and digital footprints reveal willingness and ability to repay.

The bridge

Begini layers behavioural data onto your existing models. A fuller picture of every applicant.

Actionable insights

As diverse as our data

People are diverse, and credit assessment should consider a diversity of data. 

We look at non-traditional and non-personal alternative data like smart-phone data and psychometric assessment. We use data science models to provide insight around the consumer’s personality, behaviour, community, skills and experience.

Information which is highly predictive of creditworthiness and willingness to repay.
