The strategic partnership between TransUnion and Carfax gives lenders a new, unique view into the default risk of an auto loan
Carfax has always helped auto lenders assess the value of their collateral, and this new TransUnion Vehicle History Score makes that concept even more actionable ... Based upon lender feedback, we fully expect that the Vehicle History Score will become a standard tool for measuring and managing collateral risk in automotive finance.
The TransUnion Vehicle History Score represents a step-change improvement over traditional asset risk assessment in auto finance, such as wholesale book value, because the model uses Carfax's unparalleled vehicle-specific data in combination with TransUnion's world-class risk modeling expertise.More quotes »
