Equifax Inc. has launched a new set of scores designed to analyze the creditworthiness of small businesses.
The suite of business scores uses data from the Small Business Financial Exchange, a nonprofit organization whose members consist of the nation's leading small-business lenders, Equifax said Thursday.
Among the scores now available are the Business Delinquency Score, which predicts the likelihood of delinquency on an account, and the Business Failure Score, which predicts the likelihood of a business's failure within the next 12 months.
