Paris, France, April 01, 2019 --(PR.com)-- Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co. (“Deloitte”), a member firm of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, Ltd., and Innovative Assessments International, Ltd.

France will be the first country where IA’s Worthy Credit(TM) psychometric-based credit scoring solution will be offered to the banking industry as part of this alliance between Deloitte and IA.
According to Hervé Phaure, Head of Credit Risk at Deloitte Risk Services, “We see great potential for Worthy Credit in Europe and Africa, as an effective and innovative technology for serving customers who might otherwise have limited access to affordable credit, and more widely to bring a new type of valuable information to critical credit management processes, such as NPL management or restructuring triggers.”
