The data attained from Bureaus offers an entirely retrospective view on an individual’s finances and offers very little insight into their current circumstances, recent loss of income due to Covid-19, or realistic repayment potential. To adequately process the increase in applications and to satisfy the need to identify recent changes in income, Underwriters must take a data-driven approach to affordability assessment. In this webinar we will cover: - The current challenges lenders are facing as a result of the halted economy - Alleviating pressure on Underwriting teams that are dealing with an increase in applications - Creating sustenance for Underwriters with real-time data - The future of the lending sector If you are having trouble viewing the registration form below, [please click here.](https://www.crowdcast.io/e/creating-sustenance-for-underwriters) powered by Crowdcast *Blog published May 20, 2020 - Written by [Liam Thomson](https://blog.atto.co/webinars/author/liam-thomson)* [Credit Risk](https://blog.atto.co/webinars/tag/credit-risk) [Affordability](https://blog.atto.co/webinars/tag/affordability) [Lending](https://blog.atto.co/webinars/tag/lending) ## Related Webinars [View more webinars](https://blog.atto.co/webinars) ## [Redefining Credit Risk: Insights for Lenders](https://blog.atto.co/webinars/redefining-credit-risk-insights-for-lenders) Liam Thomson Join the demo of our award-winning credit risk insights platform.
