This article was updated on March 12, 2024. The number of decisions that a business must make in the marketing space is on the rise. Which audience to target, what is the best method of communication, which marketing campaign should they receive? To stay ahead, a growing number of businesses are embracing artificial intelligence (AI) analytics, machine learning, and mathematical optimization in their decisioning models and strategies. What is an optimization model? While machine learning models provide predictive insights, it’s the mathematical optimization models that provide actionable insights that drive decisioning. Optimization models factor in multiple constraints and goals to leave you with the next best steps. Each step in the optimization process can significantly improve the overall impact of your marketing outreach — for both you and your customers. Using a mathematical optimization software, you can enhance your targeting, increase response rates, lower cost per acquisition, and drive engagement. Better engagement can lead to stronger business performance and profitability. Here are a few key areas where machine learning and optimization modeling can help increase your return on investment (ROI): Prospecting: Advanced analytics and optimization can be used to better identify individuals who meet your credit criteria and are most likely to respond to your offers. Taking this customer-focused approach, you can provide the most relevant marketing messages to customers at the right time and place. Cross-sell and upsell: The same optimized targeting can be applied to increase profitability with your existing customer base in cross-sell and up-sell opportunities. Gain insights into the best offer to send to each customer, the best time to send it, and which channel the customer will respond best to. Additionally, implement logic that maintains your customer contact protocols. Retention: Employing optimization modeling in the retention stage helps you make quicker decisions in a competitive environment. Instantly identify triggers that warrant a retention offer and determine the likelihood of the customer responding to different offers.

This article was updated on March 11, 2024. As a lender, it’s important to understand a consumer’s credit behavior and whether it's improving or deteriorating over time. Sure, you can pull a credit score at any moment, but it's merely a snapshot. Knowing a consumer’s credit information at a single point in time only tells part of the story. Two consumers can have the same credit score, but one consumer’s score could be moving up while another’s score could be moving down. To understand the whole story, lenders need the ability to leverage trended data to assess a consumer’s credit behavior over time. What to know about trended data Trended data provides key balance and payment data for the previous 24 months. By analyzing historical payment information, lenders can determine if a consumer is consistently paying more than the minimum payment, has a demonstrated ability to pay, and shows no signs of payment stress. It can conversely identify if a consumer is making only minimum payments and has increasing payment stress. Experian’s Trended Data is comprised of five fields of historical payment information over a 24-month period. It includes: Balance Amount Original Loan / Limit Amount Scheduled Payment Amount Actual Payment Amount Last Payment Date Knowing how a consumer uses credit, or pays back debt over time, can help lenders offer the right products and terms to increase response rates, determine up-sell and cross-sell opportunities, and limit loss exposure. Using a consumer’s historical payment information also provides a more accurate assessment of future behavior, helping lenders effectively manage changes in risk, predict balance transfer activity, and prevent attrition. The challenge For lenders to extract the benefits of trended data, they need to analyze an enormous amount of data. Five fields of data across 24 months on every trade is huge and can be difficult for lenders with limited analytical resources to manage. For example, a single consumer with 10 trades on file would have upwards of 1,200 data points to analyze. Multiply that by a file of 100,000 consumers and you are now dealing with over 120,000,000 data points. Additionally, if lenders utilize the trended data in their underwriting processing and intend to use it to decline consumers, they need to create their own adverse action reason codes to communicate to the consumer. Not all lenders are equipped to take on this level of effort. Still, there are trended data solutions to assist lenders with managing and unlocking the power of trended data. How Experian can help Experian’s pre-calculated solutions allow even the smallest lenders to quickly and effectively action on the benefits of trended data, minus the hassles of analyzing it. Trended data, and the solutions built from it, allow lenders to effectively predict where a consumer is going based on where they’ve been. And really, that can make all the difference when it comes to smart lending decisions. Get started today
In the ever-expanding financial crime landscape, envision the most recent perpetrator targeting your organization. Did you catch them? Could you recover the stolen funds? Now, picture that same individual attempting to replicate their scheme at another establishment, only to be thwarted by an advanced system flagging their activity. The reason? Both companies are part of an anti-fraud data consortium, safeguarding financial institutions (FIs) from recurring fraud. In the relentless battle against fraud and financial crime, FIs find themselves at a significant disadvantage due to stringent regulations governing their operations. Criminals, however, operate without boundaries, collaborating across jurisdictions and international borders. Recognizing the need to level the playing field, FIs are increasingly turning to collaborative solutions, such as participation in fraud consortiums, to enhance their anti-fraud and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) efforts. Understanding consortium data for fraud prevention A fraud consortium is a strategic alliance of financial institutions and service providers united in the common goal of comprehensively understanding and combatting fraud. As online transactions surge, so does the risk of fraudulent activities. However, according to Experian’s 2023 U.S. Identity and Fraud Report, 55% of U.S. consumers reported setting up a new account in the last six months despite concerns around fraud and online security. The highest account openings were reported for streaming services (43%), social media sites and applications (40%), and payment system providers (39%). Organizations grappling with fraud turn to consortium data as a robust defense mechanism against evolving fraud strategies. Consortium data for fraud prevention involves sharing transaction data and information among a coalition of similar businesses. This collaborative approach empowers companies with enhanced data analytics and insights, bolstering their ability to combat fraudulent activities effectively. The logic is simple: the more transaction data available for analysis by artificial-intelligence-powered systems, the more adept they become at detecting and preventing fraud by identifying patterns and anomalies. Advantages of data consortiums for fraud and AML teams Participation in an anti-fraud data consortium provides numerous advantages for a financial institution's risk management team. Key benefits include: Case management resolution: Members can exchange detailed case studies, sharing insights on how they responded to specific suspicious activities and financial crime incidents. This collaborative approach facilitates the development of best practices for incident handling. Perpetrator IDs: Identifying repeat offenders becomes more efficient as consortium members share data on suspicious activities. Recognizing patterns in names, addresses, device fingerprints, and other identifiers enables proactive prevention of financial crimes. Fraud trends: Consortium members can collectively analyze and share data on the frequency of various fraud attempts, allowing for the calibration of anti-fraud systems to effectively combat prevalent types of fraud. Regulatory changes: Staying ahead of evolving financial regulations is critical. Consortiums enable FIs to promptly share updates on regulatory changes, ensuring quick modifications to anti-fraud/AML systems for ongoing compliance. Who should join a fraud consortium? A fraud consortium can benefit any organization that faces fraud risks and challenges, especially in the financial industry. However, some organizations may benefit more, depending on their size, type, and fraud exposure. Some of the organizations that should consider joining a fraud consortium are: Financial institutions: Banks, credit unions, and other financial institutions are prime targets for fraudsters, who use various methods such as identity theft, account takeover, card fraud, wire fraud, and loan fraud to steal money and information from them. Fintech companies: Fintech companies are innovative and disruptive players in the financial industry, who offer new and alternative products and services such as digital payments, peer-to-peer lending, crowdfunding, and robot-advisors. Online merchants: Online merchants are vulnerable to fraudsters, who use various methods such as card-not-present fraud, friendly fraud, and chargeback fraud to exploit their online transactions and payment systems. Why partner with Experian? What companies need is a consortium that allows FIs to collaboratively research anti-fraud and AML information, eliminating the need for redundant individual efforts. This approach promotes tighter standardization of anti-crime procedures, expedited deployment of effective anti-fraud/AML solutions, and a proactive focus on preventing financial crime rather than reacting to its aftermath.

With the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) Show set to kickoff later this week, it seemed fitting to explore how the shifting dynamics of the used vehicle market might impact dealers and buyers over the coming year. Shedding light on some of the registration and finance trends, as well as purchasing behaviors, can help dealers and manufacturers stay ahead of the curve. And just like that, the Special Report: Automotive Consumer Trends Report was born. As I was sifting through the data, one of the trends that stood out to me was the neck-and-neck race between Millennials and Gen X for supremacy in the used vehicle market. Five years ago, in 2019, Millennials were responsible for 33.3% of used retail registrations, followed by Gen X (29.5%) and Baby Boomers (26.8%). Since then, Baby Boomers have gradually fallen off, and Gen X continues to close the already minuscule gap. Through October 2024, Millennials accounted for 31.6%, while Gen X accounted for 30.4%. But trends can turn on a dime if the last year offers any indication. Over the last rolling 12 months (October 2023-October 2024), Gen X (31.4%) accounted for the majority of used vehicle registrations compared to Millennials (30.9%). Of course, the data is still close, and what 2025 holds is anyone’s guess, but understanding even the smallest changes in market share and consumer purchasing behaviors can help dealers and manufacturers adapt and navigate the road ahead. Although there are similarities between Millennials and Gen X, there are drastic differences, including motivations and preferences. Dealers and manufacturers should engage them on a generational level. What are they buying? Some of the data might not come as a surprise but it’s a good reminder that consumers are in different phases of life, meaning priorities change. Over the last rolling 12 months, Millennials over-indexed on used vans, accounting for more than one-third of registrations. Meanwhile, Gen X over-indexed on used trucks, making up nearly one-third of registrations, and Gen Z over-indexed on cars (accounting for 17.1% of used car registrations compared to 14.6% of overall used vehicle registrations). This isn’t surprising. Many Millennials have young families and may need extra space and functionality, while Gen Xers might prefer the versatility of the pickup truck—the ability to use it for work and personal use. On the other hand, Gen Zers are still early in their careers and gravitate towards the affordability and efficiency of smaller cars. Interestingly, although used electric vehicles only make up a small portion of used retail registrations (less than 1%), Millennials made up nearly 40% over the last rolling 12 months, followed by Gen X (32.2%) and Baby Boomers (15.8%). The market at a bird’s eye view Pulling back a bit on the used vehicle landscape, over the last rolling 12 months, CUVs/SUVs (38.9%) and cars (36.6%) accounted for the majority of used retail registrations. And nearly nine-in-ten used registrations were non-luxury vehicles. What’s more, ICE vehicles made up 88.5% of used retail registrations over the same period, while alternative-fuel vehicles (not including BEVs) made up 10.7% and electric vehicles made up 0.8%. At the finance level, we’re seeing the market shift ever so slightly. Since the beginning of the pandemic, one of the constant narratives in the industry has been the rising cost of owning a vehicle, both new and used. And while the average loan amount for a used non-luxury vehicle has gone up over the past five years, we’re seeing a gradual decline since 2022. In 2019, the average loan amount was $22,636 and spiked $29,983 in 2022. In 2024, the average loan amount reached $28,895. Much of the decline in average loan amounts can be attributed to the resurgence of new vehicle inventory, which has resulted in lower used values. With new leasing climbing over the past several quarters, we may see more late-model used inventory hit the market in the next few years, which will most certainly impact used financing. The used market moving forward Relying on historical data and trends can help dealers and manufacturers prepare and navigate the road ahead. Used vehicles will always fit the need for shoppers looking for their next vehicle; understanding some market trends will help ensure dealers and manufacturers can be at the forefront of helping those shoppers.

The automotive industry is constantly changing. Shifting consumer demands and preferences, as well as dynamic economic factors, make the need for data-driven insights more important than ever. As we head into the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) Show this week, we wanted to explore some of the trends in the used vehicle market in our Special Report: State of the Automotive Finance Market Report. Packed with valuable insights and the latest trends, we’ll take a deep dive into the multi-faceted used vehicle market and better understand how consumers are financing used vehicles. 9+ model years grow Although late-model vehicles tend to represent much of the used vehicle finance market, we were surprised by the gradual growth of 9+ model year (MY) vehicles. In 2019, 9+MY vehicles accounted for 26.6% of the used vehicle sales. Since then, we’ve seen year-over-year growth, culminating with 9+MY vehicles making up a little more than 30% of used vehicle sales in 2024. Perhaps more interesting though, is who is financing these vehicles. Five years ago, prime and super prime borrowers represented 42.5% of 9+MY vehicles, however, in 2024, those consumers accounted for nearly 54% of 9+MY originations. Among the more popular 9+MY segments, CUVs and SUVs comprised 36.9% of sales in 2024, up from 35.2% in 2023, while cars went from 44.3% to 42.9% year-over-year and pickup trucks decreased from 15.9% to 15.6%. 2024 highlights by used vehicle age group To get a better sense of the overall used market, the segments were broken down into three age groups—9+MY, 4-8MY, and current +3MY—and to no surprise, the finance attributes vary widely. While we’ve seen the return of new vehicle inventory drive used vehicle values lower, it could be a sign that consumers are continuing to seek out affordable options that fit their lifestyle. In fact, the average loan amount for a 9+MY vehicle was $19,376 in 2024, compared to $24,198 for a vehicle between 4-8 years old and $32,381 for +3MY vehicle. Plus, more than 55% of 9+MY vehicles have monthly payments under $400. That’s not an insignificant number for people shopping with the monthly payment in mind. In 2024, the average monthly payment for a used vehicle that falls under current+3MY was $608. Meanwhile, 4-8MY vehicles came in at an average monthly payment of $498, and 9+MY vehicles had a $431 monthly payment. Taking a deeper dive into average loan amounts based on specific vehicle types—as of 2024, current +3MY cars came in at $28,721, followed by CUVs/SUVs ($31,589) and pickup trucks ($40,618). As for 4-8MY vehicles, cars came in with a loan amount of $22,013, CUVs/SUVs were at $23,133, and pickup trucks at $31,114. Used 9+MY cars had a loan amount of $19,506, CUVs/SUVs came in at $17,350, and pickup trucks at $22,369. With interest rates remaining top of mind for most consumers as we’ve seen them increase in recent years, understanding the growth from 2019-2024 can give a holistic picture of how the market has shifted over time. For instance, the average interest rate for a used current+3MY vehicle was 8.0% in 2019 and grew to 10.2% in 2024, the average rate for a 4-8MY vehicle went from 10.3% to 12.9%, and the average rate for a 9+MY vehicle increased from 11.4% to 13.8% in the same time frame. Looking ahead to the used vehicle market It’s important for automotive professionals to understand and leverage the data of the used market as it can provide valuable insights into trending consumer behavior and pricing patterns. While we don’t exactly know where the market will stand in a few years—adapting strategies based on historical data and anticipating shifts can help professionals better prepare for both challenges and opportunities in the future. As used vehicles remain a staple piece of the automotive industry, making informed decisions and optimizing inventory management will ensure agility as the market continues to shift.
