Credit scores are used to determine the amount of risk of lending money to a consumer. The lower a credit score is, the more likely it is a consumer will default on their loan.
Your scores impact your chances of approval, rates, deposits, and more. Your credit scores can also affect areas like employment as some companies also check credit scores as part of an employee background check. Do you know where your credit scores rank?
