FinRegLab is extending its investigation of the adoption of artificial intelligence in financial services through a policy analysis focused on the growing use of machine learning models for underwriting credit and a January 17 webinar with senior federal financial regulators to discuss generative AI and other recent developments.
FinRegLab has issued two papers that examine lenders’ ability to build, understand, and manage machine learning models to ensure that they can be trusted to underwrite applications for credit by millions of consumers and small businesses.
FinRegLab and Professors Laura Blattner and Jann Spiess of the Stanford Graduate School of Business have released new research on “Machine Learning Explainability and Fairness: Insights from Consumer Lending.”
Machine learning models are being used to evaluate the creditworthiness of tens of thousands of consumers and small business owners each week in the U.S., increasing the urgency of answering key questions about their performance, governance, and regulation.
FinRegLab is working with researchers from Stanford Graduate School of Business to launch a ground-breaking evaluation of emerging market practices to improve the transparency and fairness of machine learning underwriting models in consumer credit.
