Zusammenfassung:The method and system involves instant loan decisions by generating a risk profile of a small business (SMB). The risk profile is generated based on accounting data and other third party business management application (BMA) data of the SMB. In particular, the accounting data and other third party BMA data are retrieved from a BMA (e.g., accounting application, payroll application, tax preparation application, personnel application, etc.) as a software-as-an-service (SaaS) used by the SMB. Specifically, the risk profile represents the likelihood of the SMB to be delinquent and/or to default on a loan. The risk profile is then provided to a lender for making an expedient lending decision with respect to the SMB. In addition, statistics of lenders' lending decisions based on provided risk profiles are analyzed to generate a correlation. Accordingly, the algorithm(s) used to generate the risk profile from the accounting data and other third party BMA data are adjusted to maximize the correlation.
