Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products are provided for optimizing amounts collected in an offset action where a creditor attaches funds from a debtor's deposits account to satisfy overdue debt payments. In operation, embodiments of the present invention leverage a deposits account's transaction history to detect a deposit pattern for the account and, based on the detected pattern, predict the date of the next large deposit to the attachable account. An offset associate, using the present invention, can then schedule the offset action to occur on the expected date of the next large deposit.

The methods may include receiving an information item that relates to an event; receiving a sentiment indicator corresponding to the item; assigning to the item a market impact weighting index that is at least partially based on the sentiment indicator; and, based at least partially on the market impact weighting index, selecting the trading recommendation from a database of trading recommendations.

Abstract: Aspects of the invention provide for the use of transactional data in the calculation of sub-scores that may be used in an index score. The sub-scores may include an account sub-score, an investment sub-score, and/or a discretionary sub-score. One or more sub-scores that represent an individual, an entity, or an economic sector may be used to create an index. Further aspects relate to calculating novel indices that more accurately represent and/or predict economic conditions.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to systems, methods, and computer program products for providing a customer network in which customers are incentivized to “opt-in” to a marketing program. For example, the invention builds a network of customers, collects and stores customers' demographic information, compiles mailing lists based on list purchasers' requested demographic criteria, sells the compiled mailing lists to list purchasers, and compensates those customers included on the mailing lists.

Abstract: Aspects of the invention provide for the use of transactional data in the forecasting of an index score, such as a financial index that predicts market conditions. Such forecasting may better prepare individuals and entities for depressed economic conditions. A comparison engine may be configured to compare the financial variable of the transactional data and the transactional data's date against an index score of an index on a date to determine the correlation of at least a portion of transactions represented by the transactional data with the index score. A selection engine may be configured to select a portion of transactions that are more correlated to the index than other transactions. An index score may be forecasted with the selected transactions. Additional transactional data may be extracted from one or more physical documents, such as an invoice, a statement, and/or commercial paper.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for evaluating risk of nonpayment for mobile payments. Wireless phone numbers with associated customer history and account information may be used as a proxy to determine risk of nonpayment. Risk scores may be continually updated with new purchase and payment information. In some embodiments, authorization for a point of sale transaction may include evaluation of the mobile wireless risk score. A low wireless number risk score may result in authorization of the transaction. A high wireless number risk score may result in denial of the transaction.
