Lending Develops New Score to Predict Payment Risk –

Limited, a subsidiary of CoreLogic, Inc.

Built exclusively from payday loan performance data, the LendOptix risk
model helps lenders understand and predict payment risk in the rapidly
growing UK payday loan market. The LendOptix credit risk model complements
the Teletrack AWARE credit report to provide a statistically sound and easy
to utilize summary assessment of credit performance risk specific to payday
lending.

"We were able to leverage extensive loan performance data and market
expertise to build a powerful payday loan risk model that meets the needs of
our customers in this higher risk lending sector," said Dale Williams,
managing director of Teletrack UK. "Our customers can now use the LendOptix
score to model the profitability performance of their lending portfolios by
controlling the degree of acceptable lending risk at origination and any
subsequent renewal or rollover of the loan."

With the ability to modify score cutoffs in line with the applicant pool
and changing business needs, lenders have greater control over portfolio
performance and profitability. Demand for short-term loan products remains
high, particularly among consumers whose financial service needs are not met
by more traditional providers. These loan products require focused,
built-for-purpose risk management solutions because of the inherent higher
risk associated with making short-term loans, particularly in the online
payday market.

"As the UK payday lending market evolves, access to more focused risk
tools can help lenders develop increasingly sophisticated business models,
pricing strategies and market position to differentiate themselves from their
competitors, and that is what our customers have asked us to do in developing
this model," said Williams. "We are committed to providing innovative data
and analytics solutions in the specialist markets in which we operate to help
our clients manage profitable and responsible lending businesses and the
development of a payday loan score exemplifies that commitment."

Development of this model highlighted a number of characteristics that
are unique to both the industry and the data available from Teletrack,
including the velocity, recency and frequency of loans and credit searches.
The LendOptix model is different from traditional credit scores in a number
of ways. The data gathered and reported from payday loan providers is
uniquely current and reported in real-time, which permits immediate use of
the data in the calculation of a score for a particular applicant. The
LendOptix model can be accessed through the same interface used to process
credit searches against the Teletrack AWARE database.

"For our clients, Teletrack data is the foundation of the credit risk
assessment process. The LendOptix model will allow our clients to make
risk-based customer acquisition decisions more efficiently in store or
online, enabling early determination of credit risk based on similar products
before accessing traditional credit data and scores," said Dale Williams.
"Whilst incrementally valuable in the overall decision process, scores from
the broader credit market may not reflect the higher inherent risk associated
with the rapid nature of payday lending, which is why Teletrack invested in
the development of an industry specific score that accesses real-time data."

In addition to providing non-traditional credit data and scores,
Teletrack connects businesses to multiple external data services and scores,
including traditional credit data, fraud prevention tools, public record data
and historical bank account information to manage risk. To learn more about
