BENEFITS OF CIBIL
Increased Credit Volumes
Credit Bureaus facilitate increased lending opportunities for credit grantors while allowing
easier access to credit for borrowers. The existence of credit bureaus in developed countries
has facilitated increased market penetration of credit (to more than 66% as a percentage of GDP
as compared to 3% for India) while keeping non-performing loans in check (approximately 1% of
outstanding credit).
o Operating Efficiencies
Credit Portfolio Quality
The use of CIRs accessed from a credit bureau will enable credit grantors’ loan officers to accurately
evaluate borrower risk by making comprehensive credit histories available to decision makers.
The CIRs will facilitate an objective and transparent assessment of credit applications.
Concurrent borrowers and serial defaulters will be identified and minimized early in the approval
process - consequently reducing associated recovery and write-off costs. Similarly, premium
borrowers will be identified and serviced faster. Ultimately, CIRs will enable Members to
judiciously mix relationship-based lending and information-based lending. CIRs will serve as the
first level of due diligence in the appraisal of a credit application .
Speed and Cost
The use of CIRs will make processing loan applications easier, faster and cheaper by
sometimes eliminating the need to additionally research and verify borrower details.
Differential Pricing
Owing to the lack of comprehensive credit information, all borrowers are charged an
interest rate with an assumed level of default risk. This means that all borrowers are
charged identical risk premiums regardless of their payment history and thus pay a
premium that in developed countries is only applied to previously defaulting
borrowers. As credit grantors begin to use comprehensive credit information they will
be able to differentiate between good borrowers and defaulters. In an increasingly
commoditized credit market, credit grantors will be able to use price in order to
differentiate their loan products . Hence, the use of CIRs will prove beneficial to both
credit grantors and borrowers
