When small business lenders handle applications from Independent Sales Organizations (ISOs), they face several challenges. These include comparing ISO criteria with their own standards, checking that documents are accurate and real, following rules and regulations, managing a lot of paperwork, and correctly evaluating credit risks.

Ocrolus lets lenders combine an ISO Application and supporting documents into one book for quick sorting. Ocrolus automatically processes and extracts data instantly from the ISO Application in this file. Within seconds, lenders can then examine the important details collected from the application and decide if they want to convert any documents in the book individually or in groups. 

Preliminary risk assessment

By reviewing the ISO application first, lenders can conduct an initial risk assessment to determine if the organization meets their basic criteria for partnership before investing time and resources into reviewing more detailed documentation.

Efficiency and cost-effectiveness

Lenders can filter out applications that do not meet their minimum requirements early in the process with cost efficiency to only process documents needed for evaluation.

Strategic decision making

ISO information can be valuable for lenders in making strategic decisions about whether to pursue a relationship with the ISO, based on factors like market potential, strategic fit, and the lender's risk appetite.

This allows for reviewing the ISO application details and making an initial decision before even processing any related documents like bank statements. This helps in speeding up the process on decisioning ISO applications while also cutting down on costs, as you don’t have to process the other documents if you see something in the ISO application itself that leads you to reject the application.
