Bloom Credit

Ron Shevlin, co-author of our recent credit-building report with Cornerstone Advisors, shares insights on monetizing faster payments- a topic that connects directly to our research on consumer-permissioned data. Financial institutions need to shift from leading with technology to solving real business problems. The same principle applies to credit building: consumers don't want another feature, they want solutions that improve their financial health. Worth a read if you're thinking about how to create revenue from new payment rails and customer data capabilities>> https://lnkd.in/gVJjbxD8
