COMPUTER-PROJECTED RISK ASSESSMENT USING VOLUNTARILY CONTRIBUTED INFORMATION

摘要

A computer-implemented method for risk assessment and providing refinements to credit risk analysis based on a variety of information, including information voluntarily contributed by an applicant. The method may comprise performing a risk analysis based on a first set of information available in at least a first credit information data source and receiving a second set of information, in response to determining that the analysis provides a first result that is unfavorable to the applicant. The second set of information may be unavailable in the at least first credit information data source, and the second set of information may be retrievable from at least a secondary data source after the applicant's informed interaction with a computer-implemented interface configured to verify an authenticated approval by the applicant to provide access to information associated with at least one of the applicant's financial accounts.
