Accelerating credit evaluation with Passbook Analyzer

Learn how microfinance organizations can leverage AI to streamline underwriting operations.

Background Insight

Accurate credit assessment with AI

ABD is a microfinance company operating in 5 states in southern India. Growing rapidly, it aims to double its loan portfolio of ₹250 Crores within a year.

Evaluating the applicant’s passbook is a standard practice in lending processes. A sizeable number of ABD’s 500 employees engaged in extracting data from passbook images, identifying key data, and entering the details on spreadsheets. Underwriters use the extracted information to estimate the creditworthiness.
(For confidentiality purposes, the names and identifying details used in this case have been altered.)

Credit evaluation: the challenges

ABD followed the conventional approach of employing a team to analyze borrowers’ passbooks. Every step in the workflow, from data extraction and classification to credit score computation, is work-intensive.

ABD found that human limitations negatively impacted the accuracy of results and processing speed.

Time-consuming processes

ABD’s team spent about 2.5 days scrutinizing the passbook for each application. The company found that the delay got longer as the demand grew.

Input quality issues

Photographs were impaired by camera limitations, improper lighting, or skewing. Printer malfunctions and poor paper quality made the text difficult to read.

Layout & terminology variations

ABD’s team had to deal with different passbook formats and transaction descriptions, which are unique and bank-specific. This called for additional skills and training.
