The potential of AI in lending with Beforepay
/Beforepay is an Australia-based lender and lending engine provider. In Australia, it lets workers borrow up to $2000 for a 5% processing fee; outside Australia, it offers its AI-driven lending engine to out-of-market platforms. Founded in 2019, Beforepay is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX:B4P).
Onsite at Fintech Meetup, The FR met with Jamie Twiss, CEO of The Beforepay Group. Twiss outlined:
Beforepay’s bifurcated approach to lending, which involves disparate strategies for Australian and non-Australian markets;
How Beforepay uses AI to lend efficiently;
The categories Beforepay uses to determine whether to outsource its lending engine to platforms abroad;
The advantages of machine learning over generative AI within lending; and
The extent to which AI can drive lending in the coming years.
