~30% Increase in Instant Approvals for Indirect Auto Loans; Advancing Toward 2X+ Automation Boost
Leading global AI-powered credit underwriting platform provider Scienaptic AI, announced today that Sidney Federal Credit Union has implemented its AI-based underwriting platform and is now live. This deployment is significantly streamlining the credit union’s underwriting process, leading to an increase in approval rates and a notable enhancement in the member experience. Importantly, all these advancements have been achieved while ensuring fairness, inclusivity, and compliance with regulatory standards, which are integral to Scienaptic's AI platform.
Sidney Federal Credit Union’s story began in 1949 when a small group of Scintilla Magneto Corporation employees met in the union lodge in Sidney, New York, and paid $25 each to fund the application fee to secure a charter. Today the credit union has over $1 Billion in assets serving 72,000 members across 12 branches. Upholding the philosophy of people helping people, the credit union is on a mission to improve the financial well-being of its members by providing products and services that exceed their expectations while making banking easier.
“At Sidney Federal Credit Union, 'people helping people' is a commitment we hold with utmost seriousness. We firmly believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive, both financially and otherwise,” said Nicole Krom, Senior VP of Lending at Sidney Federal Credit Union.
