It mightappear dauntingto assessthe thin-file Millennial.
With fewer trade lines, their missteps are amplified.A skipped payment or high-credit utilization hurt exponentially more.
![Page 27: A Deeper Look at Millennials and Credit](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050613/587d63c41a28ab32318b5039/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Risk-based pricing strategies, using tools like
Extended View, can identify unique credit offers to “right size” the thin-file candidate and assign the appropriate credit limits.

the Right Consumer at Right Time with

Prequalification,a consumer-friendly option,
can be added to your decisioning toolkit. The consumer consent-based
credit inquiry allows lenders to match a consumer with the best option before the application process,
and it takes just seconds.

opportunity for lenders.

So while Millennials may have had a slow credit start, no one can deny they are coming of age.
The question is –
who will be ready and willing to partner with this massive market?
