A credit score is a three-digit statistical number calculated by various credit agencies by taking into account your credit history as well as your repayment capacity. It helps the lender analyze your creditworthiness. The credit score usually ranges from 300 to 900. The higher the credit score, the higher the creditworthiness and the easier it is to avail of loans and credit cards.
The credit score is very important to both the borrower as well as the lender.
Lenders can check the credit score and determine whether the borrower is eligible for a loan or not. On the other hand, as a borrower, you can check your credit score and ascertain whether you can apply for a loan or not. Moreover, if you have a good score, you can get favourable loan terms.
You can maintain a good credit score by keeping the below-mentioned points in mind:
Maintaining a good credit score has the following benefits:
Low interest rate on loans: Individuals with good credit scores get loans easily at lower interest rates.
Higher probability of obtaining loans and credit card: The credit score is a representation of an individual’s repayment capacity and financial habits. A good credit score indicates good creditworthiness, thereby, helping the lender grant the loan without any worry.
Higher credit card limit: The credit card limit is directly proportional to your credit score. It means the higher your credit score, the higher will be your credit limit and vice-versa.
Better deals: With a good credit score, you always are in a good negotiating position. With a high credit score, you negotiate with the lender in terms of higher credit limits and lower interest rates.
Some factors which affect your credit score negatively are:
Authorised credit bureaus prepare and publish your credit report. Some of these bureaus are TransUnion CIBIL, Experian, CRIF Highmark and Equifax.
