Strategy Maven

Scorto™ Strategy Maven is a powerful desk-top software application for the creation and one-point management of credit strategies that are used for the implementation of the customer organization's credit policy and are deployed on Quest Logic decision server. The strategies, created using Strategy Maven, define the order and business rules according to which incoming credit requests are processed by the decision server. The application serves as the workplace of a risk manager or credit analyst in charge of the definition and enforcement of the corporate credit policy.

Despite the complexity of the software's functionality that provides the most advanced credit strategy development methods, the GUI of the system is intuitively user friendly.

Credit strategies are built as consecutive successions of rules that are defined using a set of specialized nodes. Each of the nodes is intended for the description of specific aspect of the credit policy, for example the Customer Identification node or the Black List node, that allow identifying the customer and checking whether he or she is included on a "black list". Any of the nodes has a set of parameters that can be easily selected and modified to adjust the node to the current business situation.

The design of the system allows quickly modifying an existing strategy by repositioning any of the nodes and linking them with arrows between themselves as appropriate. A created strategy is executed in the order, defined by the linking arrows. One credit strategy can be incorporated into another credit strategy. The user can constantly see a list of the available strategies and easily switch between them. He can also view a list of the available nodes and display their parameters, as well as select and modify them with the minimum effort.

The system can be set to automatically inform the credit inspector in charge about the system it has made on a credit request. The risk manager or credit analyst can use some of the available nodes to allow the credit inspector to override the decision, made by the system. A special comparison capability of Scorto™ Strategy Maven can be used to automatically perform a transfer of authority based on a pre-defined criterion. The simulation functionality of the application verifies the correctness of the different nodes' linkage with strategy variables and that of the user's actions before the strategy is placed on Quest Logic server.

The main functional advantages of Scorto™ Strategy Maven are the following:
  • A uniform GUI - a graphic core, created by Scorto™ specifically for the development and management of hierarchic structures (scoring strategies).
  • Visual design of credit scoring strategies and their editing by means of point-and-click modification of the component parameters.
  • Direct access to Scorto™ Quest Logic decision server for easy and secure placement of a designed strategy.
  • Step-by-step strategy adjustment - a mechanism for the adjustment of the quality of a strategy's performance without placing the strategy on the decision server.
  • Topological strategy analysis - automatic validation for the existence of cycles, dead-ends, and illogical relations yet during the strategy creation stage.
The feature-rich tool set, robustness, and intelligent design of Scorto™ Strategy Maven make it one of the most competitive credit strategy development software products on the market. Owing to the flexibility of the system and user-friendliness of its GUI, one can work with the application without any special training. Also, the user doesn't have to have any mathematical background.
