Quantifying the Relationship between VantageScore Credit Scores and the Risk of Default
What is RiskRatio™?
A common misunderstanding about credit scores is that the risk associated with any particular score is static. In reality, the risk associated with a score shifts over time due to various factors including macro-economic changes and how consumers handle various types of credit products. VantageScore has launched a first-of-its-kind tool called RiskRatio that provides lenders and those in the capital markets the ability to refresh the relationship between credit scores and default levels (measured by delinquency of 30+, 60+, 90+, 120+ Days Past Due, Charge-Off+Bankruptcy and Bankruptcy over a 6-month, 12-month and 24-month period) at different points in time for originations as well as existing accounts.
