Business model
Commercial details are not disclosed. However, the solution is likely offered via contractual engagements with financial institutions or public partners.
Impact
The tool aims to help institutions underwrite credit more fairly and proactively, especially under climate uncertainty. It can contribute to data-driven lending and inclusive financial services.
