If many black debtors are getting inappropriate dismissals or conversions to failed Chapter 13 plans, they will have a worse credit score even though both debtors filed for bankruptcy.

[22:00] IsambardPrince One of them is it scores negatives very harshly and almost never lets up much until that factor is removed from the credit file, whereas VantageScore is like a dimmer switch. Bad thing happens and then the lights start coming back on. [22:01] IsambardPrince With FICO, 5 years after a Chapter 7 bankruptcy it doesn't really matter what you've done right since then, your FICO score is probably still under 700. [22:01] IsambardPrince With VS4, you'll probably be at 750-760 out of 850 if you've managed things well since then. [22:02] IsambardPrince FICO doesn't see consumers as the customer, they see lenders as the customer. Their job is to trend interest rates on loans so they'll be very profitable for the lender. [22:02] IsambardPrince So that means painting everyone with a broad brush as a bad credit risk. [22:03] IsambardPrince That way the lenders can keep the exorbitant interest rates they've become used to.
