The payments industry is undergoing rapid transformation, and manual or paper based processes are quickly becoming a thing of the past. Lowering costs and reducing application processing times are the goals of most underwriting departments, yet introducing automation to the workflow can be a daunting task. While it is important to transform your processes in order to keep up with this renaissance, it is crucial that identifying the right data isn’t sacrificed for faster diligence decisions. But how can you evolve your underwriting processes while still boarding the most profitable merchants by harnessing the power of technology and data science. Data science is becoming increasingly popular due to its practical application across industries that let companies make smarter and more calculated business decisions: from describing and diagnosing to predicting and prescribing.
The webinar, Making Connections: Using Data Science to Enhance Your Diligence Process, will feature two key members of the G2 Labs team – Matt Ward Steinman, VP of Solutions Development and Alan Krumholz, Principal Data Scientist. Join Matt and Alan to discover how technological and data innovations are helping transform the future of diligence and underwriting. With a focus on how technology and data science is being harnessed to provide predictions about future behavior as well as real time assessments, Matt and Alan will help you understand how to enhance your due diligence process and profitably expand your business portfolio through the power of data science.
