Experian launches new decisioning and application management system for BusinessIQ
SM
DecisionIQSM Premier allows users to create application templates and develop customized, rules-based credit policies for automated decision making
San Francisco, May 10, 2011 — Experian®, the leading global information services company, today launched DecisionIQSM Premier, the new decisioning and application processing component of its Web-based credit management platform, BusinessIQSM, at FinovateSpring 2011. DecisionIQ Premier helps organizations reduce costs and improve operational efficiencies by allowing users to automate the decisioning process and create custom credit policies. Combining these custom rules with Experian’s business data, enables organizations to create relevant decisions and credit-limit recommendations for small, medium and large businesses.
“Experian research has shown that a pain point for the commercial credit industry has been finding a way to streamline the credit application and decisioning process,” said Allen Anderson, president, Experian’s Business Information Services. “We created DecisionIQ Premier to help clients solve these issues by automating this process, and by providing them with more control over the attributes that are most important to their credit decisioning needs.”
With DecisionIQ Premier, users can configure an application form and set a custom, rules-based policy that automates how an application is handled. This provides an organization with more control over the credit attributes used to determine their own specific credit policy, and helps save time and resources by reducing the number of manual application reviews performed by their credit teams. DecisionIQ Premier also allows organizations to create an application in real time and deploy it to their Website.
Experian’s new system has been selected as one of the biggest and most innovative ideas in fintech to be presented at FinovateSpring 2011 in San Francisco. The event is the first demo-focused conference in the industry.
“For the last five years, Finovate conferences have been dedicated to showcasing the best new technologies in the financial and banking industry,” said Eric Mattson, CEO, The Finovate Group. “Experian’s DecisionIQ Premier definitely fits into that category, and we are excited to have them demo it at this year’s FinovateSpring.”
When prospective customers access the online application portion of DecisionIQ Premier, the data is then transmitted to BusinessIQ through a seamless process for decisioning. This process through BusinessIQ allows organizations to review and customize their credit policy decision and adjust credit limit settings — all with the click of a button.
DecisionIQ Premier also helps organizations manage incoming applications. By creating workflow queues, DecisionIQ Premier helps credit analysts prioritize applications, review company financials and check bank reference information more efficiently.
