New Partnership: Subaio and Experian Join Forces for Better Credit Assessments
The credit company Experian has just entered into a strategic partnership with the fintech company Subaio in the Nordics. As the requirements for lenders continue to tighten, it’s essential to gain deeper insights into a potential borrower’s creditworthiness.
September 23, 2024 – Subaio handles transaction data using the PSD2 directive from a wide range of Europe’s leading banks. By utilizing Subaio’s data-driven engine to analyze recurring payments, Experian will be able to provide an even stronger and more accurate foundation for credit assessments in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland. In collaboration with Experian‘s extensive insights into the credit market from sources like RKI and the debt registry KreditStatus, it will become easier and more accurate for lenders to assess the creditworthiness of a potential or existing customer in the future.
“The collaboration with Subaio is an important step forward in our mission to deliver first-class financial solutions. Subaio‘s expertise in open banking and transaction-based budgeting will enhance our ability to offer more precise and personalized credit assessments to our customers. This agreement is a significant step towards improving transparency, tailored solutions, and an elevated customer experience” explains Bo Rasmussen, Chief Commercial Officer at Experian.

“It is a significant advantage for the average consumer that credit assessments can now become even more accurate, as it allows for providing credit to those who can maintain and repay a loan. Conversely, it also becomes easier to prevent borrowers from incurring debt they cannot afford to repay. Responsible lending is crucial for the economy, but also for individuals’ personal finances,” notes the Chief Commercial Officer at Experian.
At the same time, the collaboration highlights Subaio‘s position as the leading provider of white-label financial solutions for Europe’s largest banks and credit institutions.
The market has always trusted us as the best, but the partnership with Experian confirms our superiority"

A crucial advantage of this solution is that consumers can now more easily grant lenders access to their budget data when applying for a loan. This means that the process for both the consumer and the lender is automated and significantly shortened, making it far less burdensome for both parties.
Beyond Denmark, Experian has secured exclusivity on Subaio‘s credit solution in the Nordic market. This exclusivity ensures that Experian can better meet the specific needs and requirements of lenders. Ultimately, this gives Experian and Subaio a competitive edge, as the combined solution is unmatched by other players in the credit assessment market.
By utilizing transaction data, lending companies can achieve significant benefits through improved customer insights and more opportunities for personalization. Risk mitigation and decision-making processes will be significantly refined, resulting in accurate credit assessments. Transaction data also brings substantial improvements to the KYC (Know Your Customer) process, an important tool in the fight against fraud.
