Creditinfo Decision to Use and Re-sell the new Modeller Software

Creditinfo Decision, the risk management consulting firm, has extended their agreement with Paragon Business Solutions to use their newly released Modeller scorecard and model development software and provide it in a re-seller capacity. Creditinfo Decision will use the Modeller software to develop their scorecards across the numerous countries they operate in across Europe, Central Asia and Africa. They will also act as a re-seller to those organizations who wish to use it to develop in-house scorecards.

Modeller – build powerful predictive models
 

This recently released solution is a fully integrated predictive model system development environment.    This solution builds on 25 years of experience with DSS its predecessor and incorporates many new features required in today’s environments;
 

•  CHAID for multiple model analysis,
•  Boot Strapping function for those Basel II requirements
•  Audit and documentation
•  Dual Interface for “pre-defined model framework” for new users and “free-format” for experienced developers
 
The combination between Paragon and Creditinfo Decision
 
With the utilization of a variety of regression techniques and the ability to model different outcomes, Modeller software enables Creditinfo Decision to develop all kinds of scorecards including good/bad, behavior, marketing, collection, churn, turnover and activity models.  For credit providers that wish to develop models internally but retain the structured approach of an external provider Modeller provides a unique audit trail throughout the scorecard development process, backing up the groups settings, model specification, model log and any reports produced for that model. These features are ideal for Banks that require transparency and accountability in the Basel II environment.
 Modeller will be used to develop the credit bureau suite of scorecards Creditinfo Predictor which is used by 1000s of lenders across Europe.
 
As Paul Randall, the Managing Director of Creditinfo Decision said, “The combination of substantial knowledge in risk management consultancy from Creditinfo Decision, and flexible Modeller software from Paragon will provide an excellent partnership. It will enable us to meet the needs of clients that wish us to develop models in an open and consultative way for them, but also provide a flexible but well audited tool to those organizations that wish to develop models in-house.” Furthermore, Jalal Khoylou, director of Paragon explained that “the Creditinfo Decision endorsement of our Modeller software demonstrates our leading position in the provision of scorecard development software.  We are also excited about the potential for Creditinfo Decision to provide our software to these additional fast developing markets.”
