Abstract: Systems and methods are described in connection with a financial trustworthiness assessment service that provides an assessment of an individual's financial trustworthiness that is not necessarily on credit bureau information. The financial trustworthiness assessment is based, at least in part, on transaction-level financial information associated with the individual, as well as on other data associated with the individual that may be financially-based or otherwise indicative, alone or in conjunction with other data, of financial trustworthiness. For example, the assessment may be based at least in part on information from one or more repositories of information, including, but not limited to a check authorization database, a demand deposit account database, a consumer credit rating database, public data (such as bankruptcy and marriage records), department of motor vehicle records, and other third party data sources.
