    Qualified but Unverified: The Risk Employers Cannot Afford to Take Hiring qualified employees with unverified credentials can create uncertainty for the company, which is why employers only accept individuals with verified credentials. A 2017 article from SHRM tells how Jay Meschke discovered an impressive candidate falsifiying her educational credentials, similar with Yahoo's CEO in 2012. This is alarming since these mishaps can happen at top-level positions. Rather than avoiding to hire candidates with ""good"" credentials, it's important to focus on verifying them. Smile Checks ensures all candidate credentials are verified so that you can make informed hiring decisions without any worry. ✅ #HR #HumanResources #Recruitment #HRtech #SmileChecks #BackgroundChecking

    The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) has recently released its findings from the Senior Bank Loan Officers' Survey (SLOS) for Q1 2024, and the data offers critical insights into the current lending landscape. Let's take a look: ✅Key Takeaways: - Credit Standards: Most banks have kept their credit standards unchanged for businesses and households. While 86.3% of banks retained loan standards for firms (modal approach), the diffusion index (DI) method showed a net tightening of standards for businesses due to deteriorating borrower profiles and lower bank profitability. - Loan Demand: 70.6% of banks have reported to get steady demand when it comes to business loans. The DI approach, however, revealed a net increase in demand driven by improved economic expectations and attractive financing terms. Similarly, household loan demand is steady, with an expected increase in Q2 due to rising consumption and favorable loan terms. What does this mean for you and your business? As HR and fintech professionals, navigating the complexities of credit standards and loan demand is crucial. As a provider of real-time, verified employment data, this aligns perfectly with the BSP’s emphasis on maintaining a strong borrower profile and managing risk tolerance. Here’s where Smile API comes into play: - With the ongoing challenges of maintaining credit standards, Smile API's comprehensive data solutions help banks and financial institutions mitigate risks by providing detailed employment histories. This ensures more accurate credit assessments, supporting stable lending practices despite fluctuating economic conditions. - As the demand for loans grows, particularly in the fintech sector, Smile API is able to aid banks and financial institutions in accelerating the decision-making process by offering verified data from government sources like SSS, Philhealth, and Pag-IBIG in the Philippines. This not only speeds up the approval process, but also enhances the reliability of credit assessments through up-to-date and verifed information straight from the source..

    In the latest banking news, two Philippine operating banks had reported to earn higher in the 1st quarter of 2024 despite high interest rates and growth in consumer and retail loans. According to Frederick Dy of Security Bank Corp., their net profits have reached P2.6 billion pesos, with an increase of 11% in comparison to their previous report. The bank's net loans also increased by 12 percent, which was driven by an 18% growth in retail and micro, small and medium enterprise loans. Similarly, the Bank of Commerce (BankCom) and its income also rose by 8%. Known as the lending arm of the San Miguel Corporation, its gross revenues, andother income such as service charge, fees and commision also rose up to P2.25 billion and P398.34 million, respectively. Coupled with this achievement is the decrease in percentage of their non-performing loans, which decreased from 1.54% to 1.47% Common Ground The increases from these banks are very different, but share a common subject: loans. Loan performance has always been a concern for banking and lending institutions, whether big or small banks. With the increase of interest rates & loan applicants intending to use loans for business or personal use, it's high time banks leverages on this and capitalize, striking while the iron is hot. But a question then pops out, how are banks decreasing non-performing loan rates and improve loan performance? With different tools to cut down time in assessing multiple data and paperwork, these banking and lending institutions are able to process loan applications faster, yet still remain to uphold tight standards and be detail oriented on every piece of information on a loan application. If you're still wondering how you can do it, here's how Smile Checks can help you: Where Smile API Comes In: - Enhanced Credit Assessment: By leveraging Smile API’s comprehensive employment data, banks can more accurately assess creditworthiness, reducing the risk of non-performing loans. - Streamlined Loan Processes: Smile API’s real-time data access facilitates faster and more efficient loan processing, improving customer satisfaction. - Supporting MSMEs: Our data solutions empower banks to extend more loans to micro, small, and medium enterprises, driving economic growth.
