So-called trended data provides a 24-month snapshot of an applicant's credit card payments. It can show if borrowers are "revolvers" who make at least the minimum payment each month and carry a balance, or "transactors" who pay their credit card bill in full each month. "Prior to trended data, there was no way to distinguish between a transactor and a revolver," according to John Ulzheimer, a credit expert based in Atlanta who has written several books on consumer issues. "It is very valuable and powerful information." For example, transactors who pay their credit card bill in full each month are considered three to five times less risky than revolvers who are current but do not pay in full. Ulzheimer said he expects transactors to get better pricing on their mortgages. Trended data can also show if a balance is growing and whether monthly payments are increasing or decreasing. If consumers are choosing to pay less while balances are growing, it may signal an applicant is becoming more risky and could become delinquent before their credit score changes. "It provides insight into each borrower's use of credit and provides a more complete picture of their eligibility for mortgage loans as well as the risks inherent in their creditworthiness," Timothy Mayopoulos, Fannie's president and chief executive, said in a recent interview. Fannie is slated to update Desktop Underwriter in the second quarter with trended data supplied by the credit reporting bureaus TransUnion and Equifax. Lenders should be able to access trended data sometime this summer. The introduction of trended data is not expected, however, to expand Fannie's credit criteria (American Banker, 02/25/16). 02/25 In the short history of mobile wallets, the most self-destructive thing a company could do was restrict a user's payment or loyalty options. This was the downfall of Softcard, which was operated by mobile carriers that barred the rival Google Wallet from their handsets. It was the downfall of Bling Nation, which demanded that retailers use its own loyalty system. Even Apple has struggled to convince consumers to regularly use Apple Pay, the iPhone's exclusive contactless mobile wallet. So what makes Chase Pay so different? Chase Pay is tied to the issuer's 94M credit, debit and prepaid card accounts, representing half of US households. Depending on the perspective, this means Chase's wallet either starts with — or excludes — half of the market. But it also has the flexibility to work in the foreground or background of any partner's digital wallet, bringing its massive cardholder base along with it. Chase Pay is flexing its muscles only five months after it was created as part of the closed-loop ChaseNet payment network by landing a role with Starbucks, which has long been the marquee player in mobile payments with its own successful wallet app. Chase Pay also has a place in the Merchant Customer Exchange's upcoming CurrentC mobile wallet, which is expected to be supported by the venture's mega-merchant backers. Chase also wants its Quick Pay person-to-person technology to be part of the MCX wallet over time (American Banker, 02/25/16). 02/24 Moven, one of the most talked-about startups of the fintech boom, is looking to spread financial education to the self- employed. The digital-only "neobank" announced a partnership with the Freelancers Union, a group that represents 300,000 freelancers across the United States. Freelancers often struggle to access mainstream banking services because they lack a specific employer, make inconsistent incomes and may not have a permanent address. Those are conventional indicators of risk for traditional institutions, Moven said in a press release Wednesday. Through the partnership, Moven will host free monthly events intended to provide support, education and tools to freelancers. "Banks look at freelancers as second-class citizens, when in fact they are a highly educated, upwardly mobile, valuable group of individuals," said Alex Sion, a Moven co-founder and its president. Moven has struck several partnerships recently. In January it announced an alliance with the marketplace lender CommonBond and the credit card consolidator Payoff to provide financial incentives to customers for using multiple fintech services. The strategic move parallels President Obama's new budget proposal including about $30M to support the connection between youth employment programs, financial literacy and the responsible use of financial products, according to Treasury officials (American Banker, 02/24/16).
