What is a credit reference agency?
A credit reference agency is a companies that collect address, identity, and credit information from various sources, and combines the data to produce a credit report. The main UK credit reference agencies hold personal credit files on almost every adult in the United Kingdom. Commercial companies, banks, credit cards, and other financial businesses may also keep their own records about your repayments for their own purposes, and they may also share this information with credit reference agencies. The credit reference agencies put all the data together and the result can be used to paint a picture of a persons overall credit worthiness. When a person applies for credit, the lender may run credit checks as part of their risk assessment procedures. The credit agencies provide credit checks and the lenders combine the results of the credit check with the information they have on their own files. They then use their own risk score models and decide whether the applicant meets their criteria for extending credit.
