Now more than ever, financial institutions are turning to their data for insights into their customers and market opportunities. But to be effective, this data must be accurate and fresh; otherwise, the resulting strategies and decisions become stale and less effective.

This was the challenge facing OneMain Financial, a large provider of personal installment loans serving 10 million total customers across more than 1,700 branches—creating accurate, timely and robust insights, models and strategies to manage their credit portfolios.

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source.
