|
| 1. |
Signature, new and used auto
loans will be underwritten using the current
St andard Application Process or through traditional “judgmental”
underwriting by a loan officer, if the loan does not pass
SAP. |
| 2. |
If the loan is approved, it will be categorized
into 1 or 4 categories (A, B, C or D.) |
| 3. |
The categories are determined by the Beacon
Score (Equifax) on the member’s credit report. |
| 4. |
Score categories are as follows: A = 670-800;
B = 620-669; C = 576-619; D = < 575 |
| 5. |
The pricing of the loan (the interest rate)
will be determined by the category that the loan falls into
based on the applicant’s risk score. If there is a
guarantor on the loan, the rate will be based on the primary
applicant’s risk score. |
| 6. |
Pricing is as follows: A = our “best/standard”
rate; B = Standard rate + 1.5%; C = Standard rate + 3%;
D = Standard + 5%. |
| 7 |
Any loan that is rejected by a loan officer
that falls into a B category or above, based on the risk
score, will be reviewed by the Loan Manager for additional
approval opportunity or reconsideration. If the loan is
ultimately approved, it will be priced based on the structure
outlined above and the file will be documented as to the
reasons for approval. |
| 8 |
We will also disclose that the rate on the
loan will be based on the member’s creditworthiness.
|
| 9 |
We will use appropriate verbiage qualifying
the interest rates in our marketing and education materials. |
