Create greater access to credit for marginalized populations
By Equifax
August 2022
Expanding your credit reach to marginalized populations can help them and you. According to Equifax research, more than one-third of Americans are unbanked, underbanked, have a thin credit file, or are credit invisible (no credit file). Ultimately, without traditional credit standing, many consumers who can responsibly handle credit are shut out of mainstream financial products due to a lack of opportunity to establish a credit history. Discover opportunities to help your community while growing your membership with data products that help you to go beyond the traditional credit score.
