LONDON, England, 13 July 2010–
CoreLogic (NYSE: CLGX), a leading
provider of information, analytics and business services, today
announced that Teletrack UK Limited, a subsidiary of CoreLogic,
Inc., has been ratified as a full-member of the Steering
Committee on Reciprocity (SCOR).
SCOR is a cross industry forum made up of representatives from
credit industry trade associations and credit reference
agencies. It is responsible for the administration and
development of the data sharing rules known as the Principles of
Reciprocity.
"Teletrack UK set out three years ago to be the leading
specialist credit reference agency (CRA) serving the UK Payday
Lending and other non-traditional credit markets," said Dale
Williams, Managing Director of Teletrack UK. "Since that time,
we have grown to be recognized as the leading CRA and solution
provider in these markets as evidenced by the rapid growth of
our company, our customer base and our data assets."
Over the last three years Teletrack UK has served as an observer
member, providing a unique perspective and expertise in the
areas of payday lending and other non-traditional credit. In
addition to establishing a track record of contributing to the
affairs of SCOR, Teletrack UK satisfied the formal acceptance
criteria for full membership for a CRA which includes
significant minimum thresholds for the volume and integrity of
data assets, size of contributing customer base, regulatory and
data sharing compliance standards, and information security and
audit standards.
SCOR was established by the UK credit industry as a
self-regulating user group to develop and oversee documented
guidelines to address issues surrounding the use and sharing of
credit performance and related data on individual consumers in
the UK. SCOR operates on behalf of the trade associations that
it represents and makes recommendations on matters concerning
the Principles of Reciprocity to those associations.
"We consider SCOR membership as well as the core values and
benefits of the Principles of Reciprocity fundamental to the
integrity and success of our business. We are delighted our
efforts and achievements have now been recognized by SCOR," said
Williams. "We are committed to providing ongoing input to SCOR
through its working parties where our expertise in specialist
markets adds value and to helping our clients run profitable and
responsible lending businesses."
Trade associations represented at SCOR are the British Bankers'
Association (BBA), British Retail Consortium (BRC), Consumer
Credit Association UK (CCA), Consumer Credit Trade Association (CCTA),
Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML), Credit Services Association
(CSA), Finance & Leasing Association (FLA) and The UK Cards
Association. CRA members now include Experian, Equifax,
