Fair Isaac Enterprise Decision Management Solution Speeds Account Originations at Turkey's Akbank



    Origination Solution Helps Lender Automate and
    Pre-Approve Consumer Loan Applications via Cell Phone
    within Minutes; Delivers Fast Return on Investment

    Fair Isaac Corporation (NYSE:FIC), the leading provider of
    analytics and decision management technology, announced today that
    Akbank, Turkey's largest privately owned bank, is successfully
    utilizing Fair Isaac Enterprise Decision Management (EDM) technology
    for a more targeted and efficient loan origination approach.
    In response to growing application volumes, Akbank recently
    launched "CepKredi" (English translation: "Speedy -- Cell Credit"), a
    new service which allows consumers to apply via their cell phone for
    mortgages, general purpose credit and auto loans. The service is
    powered by Fair Isaac's decision engine for account origination, which
    applies advanced analytics and segmentation decision rules to help
    Akbank automate and streamline origination decisions and improve
    customer service.
    The integration of Fair Isaac's EDM solution into Akbank's account
    origination processes enables the lender to preapprove consumer loans
    within 20 minutes or less of the applicant's call. The applicant is
    notified of Akbank's pre-approval offer via an interactive voice
    response (IVR) call or SMS text message, which includes interest rate
    and installment plan information. Akbank now receives 40 percent of
    personal loan applications via CepKredi. Eighty-five percent of these
    applications receive an immediate accept/decline decision without
    requiring additional data.
    "The implementation of Fair Isaac's origination decisioning
    solution has helped us meet our business growth and customer
    satisfaction goals and establish us as the most progressive financial
    services provider in Turkey," said Zafer Kurtul, Akbank's CEO.
    "CepKredi advances the Turkish consumer credit market by offering
    consumers a flexible, speedy and convenient service. Just a few months
    after rolling out CepKredi, this delivery channel is already
    accounting for 15 percent of Akbank's total daily credit assessments,
    positioning us as the leader in this market segment."
    Akbank's portfolio managers can easily design and test complex
    decision strategies without programming support and upload them to
    Akbank's origination and underwriting system. When a new loan
    application is processed, it is automatically routed through Akbank's
    chosen decision strategy to the appropriate action -- such as accept,
    or request additional information. The solution scores applicants
    based on internal and external data sources, such as credit bureau
    data. Approved consumer loans are available at any Akbank branch.
    Applicants with little or no credit histories are invited to visit a
    branch for a more detailed application process.
    "Businesses worldwide have embraced a customer-centric approach to
    managing their loan portfolios, knowing that the return on investment
    can be fast and remarkable," said Susan Sperl, vice president of
    Global Origination Solutions. "Akbank's investment in advanced
    decision management technology has helped solidify its reputation as a
    banking leader offering superior customer service within the booming
    and highly competitive Turkish payment card market."
    Akbank is currently using several other Fair Isaac EDM
    applications, including a suite of Fair Isaac customer models and
    Customer Management TRIAD(TM), which enables the bank to further
    automate key credit decisions and better manage risk at the customer
    level by allowing the lender to design, continually test and refine
    its strategies. Akbank also recently selected Fair Isaac's Falcon(TM)
    ID solution to protect its business and customers from identity fraud.
    These solutions enable Akbank to optimize lending practices and extend
    product usage by treating customers consistently across all product
    and critical decision areas.
    The Turkish lender increased its market share from six percent to
    18 percent over the past four years, while controlling risk and
    maintaining its focus on providing the highest levels of customer
    service.
    "Credit grantors in Turkey and throughout Europe who are seeking
    to expand their consumer credit lending business to broader segments
    of the population require leading-edge systems that enable them to
    safely and efficiently underwrite new accounts and optimize their
    customer decisions," said Robert Duque-Ribeiro, vice president of
    International Sales at Fair Isaac. "Fair Isaac has been rapidly
    expanding its presence in the country, and we look forward to helping
    leading financial institutions in the region use our industry-standard
    EDM solutions to take control of complex decision processes and
    leverage them for a competitive advantage."
