The foundation of the TransUnion solution is advanced analytics and decisioning technologies that correlate information on a consumer's credit report with National City's own underwriting criteria. Based on this analysis, National City will be able to adapt its offerings in real-time to individual customers, thereby increasing the potential profitability of existing accounts. The solution will be implemented at every customer touch point, including the company's Web site, call center and branch locations.
