Consumer Indebtedness Index (CII)
Enabling responsible lending
What can it do for me?
The Consumer Indebtedness Index was created in accordance with the government initiative to tackle debt in the UK. The Experian Indebtedness Index enables organisations to use consumer debt monitoring to engage in responsible lending.
How can we help you?
The CII identifies individuals that are currently showing no obvious signs of repayment difficulties but who are already highly committed and, as a result, carry a high probability of experiencing payment difficulties in the near future.
Using existing bureau data, the CII automatically measures the level of indebtedness of consumers without relying on detailed knowledge of their monthly disposable income.
