TurnKey Lender Standard Features Overview – How the Platform Works
TurnKey Lender is an integrated platform with dedicated permission-based workplaces that have features tailored to the needs of different types of users that interact with or work in a lending business.
Loan Origination for flexible application processing
As is necessary for the lending space, loan origination in TurnKey Lender ties in natively with Underwriting and Credit Decisions, transferring data between the workplaces and other employees. This allows for one to make accurate loan decisions powered by AI instantly where other software providers still require manual analysis and requires days of work time on each application.
Underwriting for instant risk evaluation and borrower analysis
The Underwriting Workspace of TurnKey Lender includes functionality for in-depth risk scoring, borrower evaluation, decision rules checks, loan agreement generation, loan offer management, and more. This workplace is designed in an intuitive way to present the maximum amount of credit scoring data on a single screen and to allow underwriters to make informed loan decisions in a matter of seconds.
TurnKey Lender then aggregates all the data your instance has access to internally and through integrations to come up with a single creditworthiness metric that lenders can see at the very top of their workspace. Applications can be assigned to employees, moved back to Origination, commented on, and analyzed in every possible detail by the employee.
TurnKey Lender’s award-winning Decision Engine uses self-learning algorithms and deep neural networks to process both alternative and conventional risk assessment data and make a fully automatic loan decision or to provide an underwriting specialist with the in-depth analysis results at a glance. This allows lenders to streamline and fully automate their credit processing and achieve almost instant loan decisions.
Intuitive Collateral Management for accurate and timely management of various assets
If your business works with secured loans, your TurnKey Lender Standard Edition will come with a fully functional Collateral workplace where all the operations with collateral assets are carried out in.
The Collateral Officer in charge of the loan application can:
- Evaluate new collateral assets
- Reevaluate existing collateral assets
- Add and create documents about the collateral asset both as a staff member and as a borrower
- Edit existing collateral assets
- Delete collateral assets
Loan Servicing for Loan management the way it’s meant to be done
The Loan Servicing module in TurnKey Lender encompasses all the activities related to loan management post loan approval. Loan managers or servicing officers use this module to manage loans’ schedules, charge installments manually, implement loan modifications, rollovers, grace periods, restructure loans, communicate to borrowers directly from the dashboard, and more.
Automated Loan Collection Alleviating Headaches of a lender
The Debt collection module allows for efficient management of loans’ collections with AI-driven collection priority, delinquency buckets, configurable collection strategies, and conversation scripts.
Collections is another workplace where we apply our proprietary AI. In this workplace, the machine learning algorithms learn to evaluate the borrower base of a lender and evaluate the collectability of each loan to help the staff pursue the right approaches with each borrower.
In-depth yet clear reporting for all your lending analytics needs
The Reports Module analyzes, formats, and presents insights from all the business-related data across the TurnKey Lender system. Reports are presented in the form of easy-to-understand graphs and dynamic dashboards which can be quickly updated or formatted differently depending on the current business need.
Lenders can also create fully custom reports in the built-in Reports builder which uses hundreds of smart markers to pull any type of operation’s data lender might need for their stakeholders or internal analytics.
Borrower Portal to make sure your borrowers have a quality digital experience with you
Borrowers get a digital end-to end experience that provides an exceptional and perfect lending interaction. . The digital workspace provides borrowers with a fully digital web (or mobile) app where they can manage their personal and payment details, apply for new loans, make repayments, and keep track of all the lending-related information.
Optional: Vendor Portal
As businesses must move their operations online to remain competitive, more and more SMEs are considering launching an in-house financing program for their vendors, merchants, and partners. Vendor financing with TurnKey Lender allows businesses to add a new sophisticated monetization source for a business to be able to build more meaningful relations with clients and partners through affordable and easy-to-use credit.
Through the vendor portal a business owner can now offer in-house financing and other credit products to vendors directly. This functionality is created to provide the freedom to finance vendors and separate stores without involving any middlemen.
Optional: Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Module (with Investor Portal)
If you’re operating a peer-to-peer lending business , you will get the Peer-to-Peer Module in your TurnKey Lender Standard Edition. . This workplace provides the functionality sufficient to manage investors and investments, funds collection and deposits, loan bidding, and more.
The P2P Investor Portal provides investors in a lending platform with a fully functional web cabinet where they can bid on loans, manage investment opportunities and account details, as well as track current and past investments.
From the side of the borrower/investor/vendor, they get an easy-to-use application flow and a dedicated Borrower Portal/Vendor portal or Investor portal respectively. All of the credit checks, application processing, pre-qualification, KYC, documentation are done on full autopilot with employees nonetheless being able to get involved or change the automatic flow the way they see fit in any given business scenario.
In an overview, here’s what a standard loan’s lifecycle looks like in a digital end to end solution:
