Premier Lending Inc. Adopts FICO Score 10 T for Loan Originations and Whole Loan Investment Fund

Mortgage Leader Signs on to Use FICO’s Most Predictive Score to Help More Borrowers Achieve Homeownership

FICO, a leading analytics software firm, has announced that Premier Lending Inc. (Premier Lending), a family-owned Charlotte, N.C. based mortgage leader, will become an early adopter of FICO® Score 10 T to enhance its non-conforming loan origination efforts as well as acquisitions of mortgage whole loans.

Premier Lending will use FICO’s newest, most innovative, and most predictive scoring model to provide real-time evaluation to help value repurchased loans. Motivated by its desire to better serve its customers, Premier Lending is adopting FICO® Score 10 T to continue to drive the company’s innovation strategy forward and help make more homeownership dreams a reality.

"At Premier Lending, we're not just transforming customer-centricity; we're strategically shaping the future of our industry. By integrating FICO Score 10 T into our arsenal, we're elevating our credit decision-making for our products,” said Fadi Faraj, CEO of Premier Lending. “This bold initiative isn't just about today; it's about paving the way for tomorrow. We're unlocking opportunities for future acquisitions of residential mortgage loans, forging powerful partnerships with trusted entities such as Yieldstreet. It's not just business; it's a strategic journey towards unparalleled success and innovation."

FICO Score® 10 T provides even greater precision in making lending decisions. FICO Score 10 T can help lenders better manage credit risk and default rates when extending competitive credit offers to consumers. FICO Score 10 T can enable an increase in mortgage originations of up to 5 percent (without taking on additional credit risk) and reduce default risk and losses by up to 17 percent. The increased predictive power of FICO Score 10 T can also help lenders project cash flow more accurately.

“Premier Lending’s adoption of FICO Score 10 T can allow it to further deliver on its mission of making homeownership dreams a reality for more people, while growing its business,” said Julie May, vice president and general manager of Scores at FICO. “Our analytics empower lenders to make more-informed credit decisions quickly, and we’re thrilled to partner with Premier Lending in its innovative and customer-centric journey.”

The FICO Score Migration Resource Center provides a detailed guide to support organizations through their score transition with key planning steps and activities, in addition to implementation best practices.
