FT x Nova Credit Fintech Takes x Nova Credit Presents Cash Flow Conversations Episode 4: The Cash Flow Bureau of the Future

Hello, and thanks for joining us for the fourth and final episode of Cash Flow Conversations, a new miniseries sponsored by Nova Credit.

In episode 4, I sit down with Chris Hansen, GM, Cash Atlas Solutions at Nova Credit.

Chris has probably thought more than anyone I know about how cash flow data is going to reshape the credit data and analytics ecosystem.

Our conversation hinges on a big question: what could a credit bureau built around consumer-permissioned cash flow data look like?

We dig into the three pillars of that vision (infrastructure for persistent access to on-us and off-us data, analytics that convert transaction streams into credit attributes and scores, and compliance that bridges FCRA requirements with Section 1033’s consumer-permission rules).

We also explore how consumer permissioning complicates lender workflows (while empowering consumers), the utility of real-time willingness to pay data across the lending lifecycle, and the opportunities cash flow data opens up far beyond underwriting…

That’s a wrap for Cash Flow Conversations! Thanks for listening; we hope you’ve enjoyed the journey as much as we have.
