  • Patent number: 11528340
    Abstract: Financial events can be provided using a push framework. Using the push framework, an aggregation provider can subscribe to receive a customer's financial data without ever requiring access to the customer's login credentials. Once an aggregation provider has subscribed to receive a customer's financial data, the financial institution's system can push financial events to the subscribed aggregation provider describing changes that have occurred to the customer's financial data.

  • Publication number: 20220300972
    Abstract: A server includes a consent repository and a consent management interface. The consent repository is configured to store data and one or more existing consent receipts. A method performed by the server includes receiving a customer ID that corresponds to a customer. The customer ID is matched to a universal ID stored on the server. Financial account data associated with a financial account of the customer is retrieved from a financial institution associated with the customer. Furthermore, a consent request data submission is received from an external computing device. The consent request data submission includes one or more data access consents. In addition, a consent request is transmitted to the consent management interface. The consent request includes the one or more data access consents. Additionally, the consent request is digitally signed by the server and stored in the consent repository as a new consent receipt.

  • Publication number: 20220300645
    Abstract: A server includes an identity certainty model, which has permutation ensembled weights. The server receives a plurality of data access consent receipts from an external consent repository. Based on the data access consent receipts, the server retrieves a plurality of data types from one or more data providers. The server executes the identity certainty model on the data types. The server performs an ID resolution operation on the data types. Using data outputs produced by the ID resolution operation, the server calculates metrics from the ID resolution operation. A weighting of the data outputs produced by the metrics calculations is performed using the permutation ensembled weights. An identity protection score and a risk score are determined based on the weighted data outputs. An optimization operation is performed on the identity protection score and the risk score to determine an identity certainty score.

  • Publication number: 20210326980
    Abstract: A method for providing an accurate evaluation of a borrower's creditworthiness includes using a network-connected aggregation server to aggregate records of a plurality of financial transactions from one or more network-connected financial institution servers, wherein each record of a financial transaction comprises a unique identifier associated with its transaction and using the records of the plurality of financial transactions to determine estimated financial information of the borrower. The estimated financial information of the borrower may include an estimated cash flow stream of the borrower, an estimated income stream of the borrower, an estimated trade line of the borrower, or estimated assets of the borrower. The method may also include using the estimated financial information of the borrower to create an evaluation of the borrower's creditworthiness and providing the evaluation of the borrower's creditworthiness to a recipient that is considering whether to extend a loan to the borrower.
