Ep. 55 | Alternative Data Download w/ Equifax

Articles by: Dan Bucherer

In this edition of the AFSA Extra Credit Podcast, we chat with Lena Bourgeois, SVP & General Manager of Automotive & Insurance with Equifax about alternative data. It’s a term that gets thrown around a lot but Lena gives us the download on what it is, what it can do for your business and most importantly, how it can increase credit access for consumers. We also touch on how bringing alternative data into your business processes can help you weather our current economic uncertainty.
