Advancements in technology are completely changing the lending and loan management practices. It's all about AI these days - a cost-effective way to reduce that long time it usually takes to close a loan, boosting competitiveness and profitability. Automation allows lenders and banks to focus more on the customer experience and less on looking at data from all kinds of standardized forms. Digital lenders have shown that their bet is on technology, rather than balance sheets. Plus, through the use of alternative data, lenders can access a wider customer base, as folks who maybe didn't qualify for a loan under FICO can now be found eligible. We're exploring this topic today with my guests Zest AI CEO Mike de Vere and Informed.IQ CEO Justin Wickett.
