Home Credit, CIC formalize ties
Home Credit, a Prague-based consumer finance company that helps customers avail themselves of smartphones, appliances and other gadgets through installment, recently formalized its partnership with state-run Credit Information Corporation (CIC), with the sharing of its Philippine credit database to CIC now underway.
Home Credit Philippines’ (HCPH) data sharing, which will happen in stages, is in compliance to Republic Act 9510, which requires banks, finance companies and other credit facilities such as utility companies to submit data related to their clients’ credit history to the CIC. HCPH was one of the very first companies to become compliant.
HCPH CEO Annica Witschard said that “in every country that Home Credit is in, we firmly believe in the importance of having a system in place to promote financial inclusion, and ensure that more and more people are given access to financial tools.”
