Merit Scores
What is the value proposition?
In the United States, credit reporting and related analysis of creditworthiness is controlled by three major agencies: Equifax, TransUnion and Experian (together, “Credit Agencies”). This is a system that dates back to the 1950s. Historically, credit ratings are based on only five limited factors: payment history (35%), debt burden (30%), length of credit history (15%), type of credit used (10%) and recent searches (10%). The weighted attribution and lack of other relevant information has created a limit to determining true creditworthiness.
It will also help address Identity Theft issues that plague everyone.
If you can verify your identity safely and securely, can have a relevant credit worth profile, you can not only become and active participant in borrowing, but you can also become a lender.
All of this is meant to on your terms as something you, as an individual controls.
And while ambitious in scope, ultimately to become the standard used worldwide.
