A recent commissioned independent study by Forrester Consulting on behalf of Experian reveals that the Experian Ascend Platform™ delivered a significant 183% return on investment (ROI) and achieved payback within 12 months for a composite organization representative of interviewed customers. The Total Economic Impact™ study highlights the platform’s transformative impact on credit and fraud decisioning, providing a clear financial framework for institutions evaluating next-gen data and analytics solutions.
Before implementing Ascend, many institutions relied on fragmented, manual-heavy systems that slowed decisions and increased fraud risk. After adopting the platform, customers reported streamlined operations, faster response times, improved data quality, and reduced default costs.
Hosted in a secure hybrid-cloud environment, the Ascend Platform equips institutions with advanced analytics and real-time decisioning capabilities across the credit lifecycle. It empowers lenders to adapt quickly to changing market conditions while improving both compliance and customer experience.
Additional benefits cited by users include reduced risk at origination, better audit outcomes, and sustainability gains through less physical documentation.
The study compiled insights from decision-makers across the U.S., U.K., Brazil, and South Africa-painting a global picture of how Ascend enables smarter decisions, greater efficiency, and measurable business growth.
