Credit Risk Assessment: The New Lending System for Borrowers, Lenders, and Investors (Wiley and SAS Business Series)

“Clark and Mingyuan start with an insightful and comprehensive description of how market participants contributed to the current crisis in the residential mortgage markets and the root causes of the crisis. They then proceed to develop a new residential mortgage lending system that can fix our broken markets because it addresses the root causes. The most impressive attributes of their new system is its commonsense return to the basics of traditional underwriting, combined with factors based on expert judgment and statistics and forward-looking attributes, all of which can be updated as markets change. The whole process is transparent to the borrower, lender, and investor.” —Dean Schultz, President and CEO, Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco

“The credit market crisis of 2008 has deeply affected the economic lives of every American. Yet, its underlying causes and its surface features are so complex that many observers and even policymakers barely understand them. This timely book will help guide nonspecialists through the workings of financial markets, particularly how they value, price, and distribute risk.” —Professor William Greene, Stern School of Business, New York University

“This book is a well-timed departure from much of what is being written today regarding the current foreclosure and credit crisis. Rather than attempting to blame lenders, borrowers, and/or federal regulators for the mortgage meltdown and the subsequent impacts on the financial markets, Clark and Mingyuan have proposed a groundbreaking new framework to revolutionize our current lending system. The book is built on the authors’ deep understanding of risk and the models used for credit analysis, and reflects their commitment to solve the problem. What I find most profound is their passion to develop a system that will facilitate new and better investment, especially in underserved urban markets that have been disproportionately impacted in the current crisis. I applaud the authors for this important work, and urge practitioners and theorists alike to investigate this new approach.” —John Talmage, President and CEO, Social Compact

“In the wake of the credit crisis, it is clear that transparency is the key to not repeating history. In Credit Risk Assessment: The New Lending System for Borrowers, Lenders and Investors, Clark Abrahams and Mingyuan Zhang describe a new lending framework that seeks to connect all the players in the lending chain and provide a more holistic view of customers’ risk potential. As the financial services industry recovers from the mortgage meltdown, the Abrahams/Zhang lending model certainly offers some new food for thought to laymen and professionals alike.” —Maria Bruno-Britz, Senior Editor, Bank Systems & Technology magazine

Installment loans for people on disability with bad credit?

Question by Ellie Mae: Installment loans for people on disability with bad credit?
on social security disability and need a loan of about $ 2000. able to pay on monthly basis for installment loan, not payday loan.

Best answer:

Answer by gosam777
Your problem is lenders cannot garnish or seize government assistance money. Lenders need a guarantee if you default, they can recover at least some of their money. Since they cannot take SS money, they have no way to recover it, and won’t lend it out. Unless you have some collateral, a car with free title, electronics, furniture, something of value you can use as security, you won’t find anyone.

What is the best way to go about renting an apartment with bad credit?

Question by weavera79: What is the best way to go about renting an apartment with bad credit?
A friend of mine is trying to rent his first apartment with bad credit. Does he have a chance?

Best answer:

Answer by apollo
I answer this question everyday. With the company I work for, the answer is yes. Many times I ask a double deposit if the credit is not the best. It really depends on what is on the credit report.

Building Credit with Credit Cards: A Beginners Guide

Building Credit with Credit Cards: A Beginners Guide

Building Credit with Credit Cards: A Beginners Guide

This guide is geared to help gain an understanding of how to handle credit cards, and what affect it will have on your credit report. Additionally, this guide will cover some of the key factors that are looked at on credit reports as well how to help build a foundation for a solid credit future. Whether you have yet to apply for credit, or already have credit cards maxed out; I hope this guide can shed some light on how credit works.
Now before going any further it’s important to tell you my history and experience with credit. I worked for a major credit card company for several years ranging from customer service to the lending department. The majority of that time was in lending, which was responsible for approving credit applications. It’s from this position that I learned not only how to view credit reports, but determine what it showed about the customer applying. Ever since I have been helping friends and family with credit advice and decided to put this quick guide together to help people understand how their credit works.

Can I call the credit card company and ask for a higher limit?

Question by starfishblues: Can I call the credit card company and ask for a higher limit?
I got a credit card about 6 months ago with a limit of just $ 800. It’s a student credit card. Can I call the credit card company and ask for a higher credit limit? I’ve heard you can ask for a lower interest rate and sometimes they’ll give it to you, but is the same true for a higher credit limit?

Thanks in advance.

Best answer:

Answer by Dr. Savvas

As a general rule, banks are always happy to give a higher credit limit.

However it does depend on the specific bank that you’ve been issued the card.

Usually banks look at your income and sources of funding prior to increasing the credit limit, but they do not pay much attention to it. So most probably the bank will increase the credit limit,

if not. tell them you found a better deal with some other bank, they will then ask which bank; give them a bank’s name in random and provide them with a reasonable deal and I guarantee you that they will match it.(the deal)

Can you get a small loan with no credit?

Question by someonewhocares: Can you get a small loan with no credit?
My boyfriend wants to buy a small trailer house for $ 15,900 and needs a small loan. The only problem is he’s only nineteen and hardly has any credit at all. Is there any way to take out a small bank loan of about $ 15,000 with no credit? If not, any advice??? He has to move out very soon!

Best answer:

Answer by psunuc

Since he is financing it almost 100% this could be tough. Most likely he will need someone with good credit to co-sign the loan for him.

This means that they will pay the loan payments if he does not or can not for some reason.

Where can I get an unsecured loan with bad credit?

Question by Corey W: Where can I get an unsecured loan with bad credit?
I need to figure out a way to get some kind of installment loan for around 3k-5k. I make good money, but I don’t have good credit at all. Are there any kind of helpful companies for something like this?

Best answer:

Answer by Voice Maxed
No institution would afford you an unsecured loan with bad credit. If you can’t get a credit card, then forget the cash loan.

You said that you make “Good Money” if you make $ 3K to $ 5K then you make be able to to get a payday loan but this doesn’t qualify as an installment loan as you were asking for.
Another option is to pawn something of value, this however does not qualify as unsecured.
So there, i guess the answer to your question is nowhere.
