For many decades, credit scoring has built the foundation of financial risk assessment and provided banks and other financial institutions with a quantitative view of a borrower's creditworthiness. Traditionally, credit scores are derived from a combination of factors that include payment history, credit utilization, the length of credit history, types of credit used, and recent credit inquiries.
