The software, leveraging advanced technology and data analytics, is designed to enhance credit risk management and streamline the lending process in Nigeria’s banking sector.
The company said “the Credit Ratings Software is designed to help banks assess the financial health, risk profile, and repayment capacity of customers and corporate clients before making lending decisions. Integrating seamlessly with existing banking systems, the software provides real-time evaluations, ensuring loans are granted based on accurate and reliable data.”
Group managing director of Fintrak, Bimbo Abioye emphasised the importance of this new product for the banking industry, saying “at Fintrak, we are dedicated to providing cutting-edge solutions that drive greater efficiency and sustainability for our clients.
“The introduction of our Credit Ratings Software marks a significant step forward for Nigeria’s banking sector. It empowers banks to make informed lending decisions, thereby reducing the risk of defaults and contributing to the long-term stability of the financial system.”
Abioye stated that “with the increasing demand for loans in Nigeria, banks must have the right tools to assess risk accurately. Our software provides real-time credit evaluations, which will help banks minimize financial risk while ensuring that loans are granted to borrowers with the capacity to repay.”
He explained that “the Credit Ratings Software offers several key benefits to banks, including providing an accurate credit risk assessment using advanced algorithms to evaluate borrowers’ creditworthiness. This helps banks understand potential risks more effectively and make better-informed decisions. The software also automates the credit evaluation process, enabling faster loan approvals without compromising quality, thereby improving the overall customer experience.”
He added that the software significantly enhances financial risk management by allowing banks to identify potential risks early in the lending process, reducing the chances of defaults, saying that it also ensures compliance with regulatory standards set by Nigeria’s financial authorities, including the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
Abioye highlighted the software’s broader importance in Nigeria’s rapidly evolving economic environment, explaining that “in today’s fast-paced financial landscape, banks must adopt tools that help them manage risk effectively while providing seamless services to their customers.
“Our software is built to meet these demands, and we believe it will have a significant impact on the long-term stability of Nigeria’s banking sector.”
The introduction of the Credit Ratings Software reinforces Fintrak’s commitment to equipping financial institutions with tools that improve their risk assessment and credit decision-making processes.
