What are Credit Scores and how to read
them?
A credit score is a numerical index which represents an estimate
of an individual's financial creditworthiness. It is based on a
subset of the information in an individual's credit report.
Lenders, such as banks and credit card companies, use credit
scores to determine credit limits and interest rates.
The best-known credit score in the United States is the FICO
score calculated using mathematical formulae developed by the
Fair Isaac Corporation. The three major American credit-report
agencies (Equifax, Experian and Trans Union) all use variations
on this scoring formula under different names, the best-known of
which are the Beacon score and the Emperica score. FICO scores
and its variants are designed to measure the risk of default, by
taking into account various weighted factors:
35% punctuality of payment in the past 30% capacity used,
i.e., ratio of current revolving debt (e.g. credit card
balances) to total available revolving credit (e.g. credit
limits) 15% length of credit history 10% types of credits used
(installment, revolving) 10% amounts of credits applied for in
the recent past The above percentages are approximate. Current
income and employment history do not influence the FICO score.
There are other special factors which can weigh on the FICO
score. One is that any monies owed because of a court judgement,
tax lien, or similar carry an extra negative penalty, especially
when recent. Having above a certain number of consumer finance
company credit accounts also carries a negative weight (critics
say that this causes a vicious cycle, locking people into
continuing to use consumer finance companies). The number of
recent credit checks also can weigh down the score, although the
credit agencies allow for credit checks made within a certain
window of time to not aggregate, so as to allow the consumer to
shop around.
FICO scores range from about 300 to 850 and exhibit a
left-skewed distribution with a median around 725. A score above
720 is considered to be "good credit," and a score below 600 is
considered to be poor. In September 2004, a Texas utility
company began setting individualized electricity prices based on
credit score.
As a result of the FACT Act (Fair and Accurate Credit
Transactions Act), free reports will be phased in during a
nine-month period, rolling from the West Coast to the East
beginning December 1, 2004. Beginning September 1, 2005, free
reports will be accessible to all Americans, regardless of where
they live. |
