OBLIGATIONS AND OUTLAYS - Grantee level
Definition
Reference
Rationale








Total Obligations by Grantee ($)

Obligations mean the amounts of orders placed, contracts and subgrants awarded, goods and services received, and similar transactions during a given period that will require payment by the prime recipient during the same or a future period. EECBG Program Notice 09-02B details when funds used for financing programs are considered to be obligated. Funds to be expended by a department internal to the prime recipient (i.e., not expended to reimburse a vendor nor award a sub-recipient) and not used for a financing program are considered obligated when they have been committed to the internal department that will expend the funds.
http://www1.eere.energy.gov/wip/pdfs/eecbg_reporting_program_guidance_10_007b.pdf
This information enables tracking of progress towards the ARRA requirement to obligate all grant monies within 18 months of the grant award.



































OBLIGATIONS AND OUTLAYS - Subgrantee level
Total Obligations by Subgrantee ($)
Total Outlays by Subgrantee ($)
Outlays (expenditures) mean charges made to the project or program. They may be reported on a cash or accrual basis. For reports prepared on a cash basis, outlays are the sum of actual cash disbursement for direct charges for goods and services, the amount of indirect expense incurred and the amount of cash advances and payments made to contractors and sub-recipients.
http://www1.eere.energy.gov/wip/pdfs/eecbg_reporting_program_guidance_10_007b.pdf

Other Program Expenses ($)

Please report other program grant expenditures for the quarter at the PROGRAM level, not classified as materials, labor, marketing, or outreach; these expenditures may include overhead, incentives, financing, etc.
This information enables better understanding of program costs relative to program impacts.



































JOB HOURS WORKED




















Total Job Hours Worked (hours)

A job hour worked includes hours worked administrating or working under projects funded by ARRA and leveraged funds (i.e., state and local funds, utilities, financial institutions, private contributions, etc). This includes, but is not limited to, administrative staff, consultants and contractors involved in the management or deployment of retrofit and audit activities.
Please note this is separate and in addition to the ARRA Federal Reporting requirements. The number entered here should be equal to or greater than the sum of all audit job hours, retrofit job hours, and job hours reported via federalreporting.gov.

We suggest counting job-hours from staff and consultants whose wages or salaries are paid or reimbursed with BetterBuildings or leveraged funds.

Examples include:

• The prime and sub-recipient’s administrative and program management staff hours
• Auditors and contractors working under BB and leveraged funded retrofit projects. The suggested method for quantifying audit and retrofit job hours is to request contractors to include the number of hours worked in the invoice or work order as the work is completed.
• Consultants that have billed their hours to the BB program or engaged in BB activities through leveraged partners.
• As a reminder, any hours attributed to volunteers would not be counted here. They would be counted as leveraged expenditures in row 42 or 43. Estimating the cost of the volunteer work is up to the grantees. We ask that you document a methodology.

We define financing programs according to loan product offerings, which may apply to one building sector or multiple sectors, and may be offered by unique financial institutions. If the “design” of your loan product changes (e.g., capitalization, underwriting criteria), please add the changed loan product in another column in the LOAN PRODUCT INFO tab. Name it something different (e.g., “Residential Loan Product v.2”). The selection of loan products will update within the financing section of the building sector tabs.

Please send the LOAN PRODUCT INFO tab again in the next reporting quarter. The BB database and reporting requirements have been built acknowledging that programs will evolve over time.








Name of Originating Lender
(in most cases, a financial institution)
Lender ABC













Enter the name of the lender who originates the loan. Origination is the process of preparing, submitting, and evaluating a loan application; it generally includes a credit check, verification of employment, and a property appraisal. The originating lender is the financial institution that prepared the loan.
http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/innovativefinance/ifp/glossary.htm; AFC Financial
Knowing which types of financial institutions are participating in the retrofit market enables characterization of absent financial institution types and productive dialogue with active and inactive members.




























Credit Enhancements Enter dollar amounts used to fund any credit enhancements for the loan product.









Debt service reserve ($)














Debt service is the amount of money necessary to pay interest on outstanding bonds, the principal of maturing bonds and the required contributions to a sinking fund for term bonds. A debt service reserve is a fund in which moneys are placed in reserve to be used to pay debt service if pledged revenues are insufficient to satisfy the debt service requirements. The debt service reserve fund may be entirely funded with bond proceeds at the time of issuance, may be funded over time through the accumulation of pledged revenues, or may be funded only upon the occurrence of a specified event (e.g., upon failure to comply with a covenant in the bond contract). In addition, issuers may sometimes authorize the provision of a surety bond or letter of credit to satisfy the debt service reserve fund requirement in lieu of cash. If the debt service reserve fund is used in whole or part to pay debt service, the issuer usually is required to replenish the fund from the first available revenues.
http://www.msrb.org/msrb1/glossary/view_def.asp?param=DEBTSERVICERESERVEFUND
Knowing which credit enhancements are being deployed by grant programs enables a basic understanding of funding allocations and sets a baseline for tracking loan performance and attractiveness of product offerings.



Interest-rate buy down ($)














Enter the dollar amount used to buy down an interest rate. An interest rate buy‐down is when one party (e.g., grantee) provides a lump‐sum payment based on the net present value of the difference between a target return to the lender or loan investor and the borrower’s interest rate. This has two primary purposes: (1) increase project affordability and demand by reducing monthly payments and (2) maintaining or increasing lender / investor interest in making loans by yielding higher returns.


Knowing which credit enhancements are being deployed by grant programs enables a basic understanding of funding allocations and sets a baseline for tracking loan performance and attractiveness of product offerings.



Loan-loss reserve ($) $1,000,000













Enter the dollar amount used to capitalize a loan-loss reserve. A loan loss reserve is a fund that supports a private lender that is making loans with their own capital. The loss reserve is pledged to repay the owner of the loans in the event of defaults in the portfolio of loans. Liability is capped at the amount that is put in escrow according to the contract with the lending institution -- there is no recourse to the grantee's general fund.

Knowing which credit enhancements are being deployed by grant programs enables a basic understanding of funding allocations and sets a baseline for tracking loan performance and attractiveness of product offerings.



Program loan insurance ($)














Enter the dollar amount used to fund a loan insurance. Loan insurance can be used to insure loans made by private lenders to improve properties that meet certain requirements. Lending institutions make loans from their own funds to eligible borrowers to finance these improvements. Loan insurance works like other insurance policies: lenders sign up with an insurance company and pay monthly premiums, they pay off specific amounts in the event of tightly-defined events such as defaults. If there are no defaults, the premiums are still paid.

Knowing which credit enhancements are being deployed by grant programs enables a basic understanding of funding allocations and sets a baseline for tracking loan performance and attractiveness of product offerings.



Revolving loan fund ($)














Enter the dollar amount used to capitalize a revolving loan fund (RLF). A RLF is a source of money from which loans are made. Loans are made to borrowers consistent with standard prudent lending practices. As loans are repaid by the borrowers, the money is returned to the RLF to make additional loans. In that manner, the RLF fund becomes an ongoing or "revolving" financial tool. The interest and fees paid by the RLF borrowers support program administration so that the fund’s capital base remains intact.

Knowing which loan types are being deployed by grant programs enables a basic understanding of funding allocations and sets a baseline for tracking loan performance and attractiveness of product offerings.



Power Purchase Agreement














Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is a contract between a power generator and a power consumer (or distributor). Historically, PPAs have been frequently signed between utilities and independent power producers as a way for the utility to procure additional generation. Indicate with a 'X' if this loan type describes your loan product.
http://financere.nrel.gov/finance/content/glossary
Knowing which loan types are being deployed by grant programs enables a basic understanding of funding allocations and sets a baseline for tracking loan performance and attractiveness of product offerings.



PowerSaver Loan














HUD and FHA developed PowerSaver as part of the Recovery Through Retrofit initiative launched in May 2009 by Vice President Biden’s Middle Class Task Force. Backed by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), PowerSaver loans will offer homeowners up to $25,000 to make energy-efficient improvements of their choice, including the installation of insulation, duct sealing, doors and windows, HVAC systems, water heaters, solar panels, and geothermal systems. Indicate with a 'X' if this loan type describes your loan product.

Title I Home Improvement Loan














The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) makes it easier for consumers to obtain affordable home improvement loans by insuring loans made by private lenders to improve properties that meet certain requirements. The Title I program insures loans to finance the light or moderate rehabilitation of properties, as well as the construction of nonresidential buildings on the property. HUD's Title I Loans on single family homes may be used for alterations, repairs and for site improvements. Loans on multifamily structures may be used only for building alteration and repairs. Indicate with a 'X' if this loan type describes your loan product.

Knowing which loan types are being deployed by grant programs enables a basic understanding of funding allocations and sets a baseline for tracking loan performance and attractiveness of product offerings.



Utility Energy Service Contract














In a Utility Energy Service Contract, a utility arranges financing to cover the capital costs of the project, which are repaid over the contract term from cost savings generated by the energy efficiency measures. With this arrangement, agencies can implement energy improvements with no initial capital investment. The net cost to the Federal agency is minimal, and the agency saves time and resources by using the one-stop shopping provided by the utility. Indicate with a 'X' if this loan type describes your loan product.

Payment























If there is on-bill financing - Specify who is collecting payments: grantee, third party, property tax assessor/other (drop down)














On-bill financing/payment is a repayment mechanism for a loan. It can be structured as an on-bill loan (personal loan) or a loan attached to the meter (so the obligation to make principal and interest payments transfers when billing obligation transfers).


Understanding availability and cost of capital is an important step for better characterizing market barriers to residential retrofits.



Loan servicer (fill in) Servicer ABC













The loan servicer is the company that collects monthly mortgage payments and disperses property taxes and insurance payments. Loan servicers also monitor nonperforming loans, contact delinquent borrowers, and notify insurers and investors of potential problems. Loan servicers may be the lender or a specialized company that just handles loan servicing under contract with the lender or the investor who owns the loan.

Underwriting Criteria























Please provide a summary of the program and its eligibility guidelines (text) Pennsylvania homeowners who own and are making qualifying improvements to their 1 to 2 unit primary residence located in Pennsylvania and whose combined annual household income is $150,000 or less are eligible to apply for a loan under the Keystone HELP Energy Efficiency Loan program. Applicants also agree to:

* Complete or provide data on energy usage for completion of the Energy Star Home Energy Yardstick or equivalent;
* Grant access to utility and fuel consumption data to the Department of Environmental Protection or its designees for 12 months from the date of loan (not applicable for Renovate and Repair ENERGY STAR Loan); and
* Complete a follow up survey in approximately 12 months from the date of loan; and
* Agree to permit a Quality Assurance inspection after the work is completed if project is selected.
* Agree to not accept any rebates or incentives for any part of the project from an Electric Distribution Company that is offering programs under Act 129 of 2008 (Act 129, 66 Pa. C.S. §§2806.1, et seq.), except for rebates for Energy Audits.

Only Keystone HELP® Approved Contractors may perform the work. All work can be financed if at least 75 percent of the project consists of qualifying improvements as listed on our program website.














Include all criteria where applicable with respect to: FICO score, annual income, debt-to-income ratio, loan-to-value ratio, savings-to-investment ratio, combined loan-to-value ratio, bankruptcy within the last 7 years, and etc. The standard measures for evaluation are the applicant’s debt-to-income ratio and FICO score, which is a score used by the credit rating industry to represent credit worthiness based on bill payment histories, current debt, and other criteria. Most programs use these standard measures; however a few use proxies for credit such as utility bill or property tax bill payment history that potentially widen the eligible pool of borrowers.



With an understanding that there are multiple approaches to assess credit quality, we will only require the data that lending institutions use to assess credit quality. No additional data collection is required.




























Loan Terms























Fixed Interest Rates Available (%) 3.50%













The interest rate is the amount of interest charged on a monthly loan payment, expressed as a percentage. Sometimes loan products will have multiple interest rates available, depending on the applicant's credit score.
http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/innovativefinance/ifp/glossary.htm
Understanding availability and cost of capital is an important step for better characterizing market barriers to residential retrofits.



Are variable interest rates available? Yes













Indicate whether variable interest rate loans (such as Adjustable Rate Mortgages) are available. Variable interest rates are loans that have an interest rate that fluctuates according to an index. This is in contrast to fixed rate loans, that have a constant rate.


Understanding availability and cost of capital is an important step for better characterizing market barriers to residential retrofits.



If variable interest rates are used, indicate the index to which they are attached: LIBOR













Please name the index to which the floating interest rate is attached. Some common indices used are: 11th District Cost of Funds Index (COFI), London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), 12-month Treasury Average Index (MTA), Constant Maturity Treasury (CMT), National Average Contract Mortgage Rate, Bank Bill Swap Rate (BBSW)
http://www.fhaoutreach.gov/FHAHandbook/prod/infomap.asp?address=4155-1.9.1
Understanding availability and cost of capital is an important step for better characterizing market barriers to residential retrofits. If interest rates are variable, the index will allow DOE to complete these calculations without requiring the grantee to provide regular updates.



If variable interest rates are used, indicate the maximum yearly increase in the variable interest rate: 1.50%













Please indicate, if applicable, the maximum amount by which the variable interest rate can increase in one year. This is part of the initial terms of a variable interest rate loan, such as an Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM).


Understanding availability and cost of capital is an important step for better characterizing market barriers to residential retrofits. If interest rates are variable, the maximum yearly increase will allow DOE to complete these calculations without requiring the grantee to provide regular updates.



If variable interest rates are used, indicate the lifetime interest rate ceiling (or maximum), if applicable: 10%













Describe the adjustment term and max range of the interest rate.


Understanding availability and cost of capital is an important step for better characterizing market barriers to residential retrofits. If interest rates are variable, the maximum lifetime interest rate ceiling will allow DOE to complete these calculations without requiring the grantee to provide regular updates.

With an understanding that there are multiple approaches to assess credit quality, we will only require the data that the lending institutions use to assess credit quality. No additional data collection is required.


Middle Credit Score (FICO)
650








































































































































































































FICO is an abbreviation for Fair Isaac Corporation and refers to a person's credit score based on credit history. Lenders and credit card companies use the number to decide if the person is likely to pay his or her bills. A credit score is evaluated using information from the three major credit bureaus and is usually between 300 and 850. When evaluating a borrower's eligibility for a loan, financial institutions typically pull the borrower's credit history which contains all three scores. Since the scores may vary slightly, here we ask for the second highest credit score (median), in order to standardize reporting.

GENERAL PROJECT DATA Quarterly totals are self-calculating









































































































































































































This section is for collecting general data about the project.


Knowing key characteristics of a building helps to provide a benchmark when performing a retrospective evaluation.


Unique Project ID Number 0 GWL001








































































































































































































Please assign a unique project ID number. Grantees may choose whatever ID numbering system that best suits their needs. DOE will append a unique ID in front of the grantee-chosen ID in its database to establish unique IDs across BetterBuilding grantees.


This unique project ID number will enable tracking of the project through each phase: marketing, audit, financing, and retrofit. Asking grantees to assign a unique project ID number also helps ensure privacy of the building owner connected to the project.


Unique Building ID Number (for multi-family/mixed-use) 0









































































































































































































Assign a unique Building ID Number to the entire "site," where more than one "Project" may have occurred. This can be used for either multifamily buildings or mixed use buildings.

We will now ask grantees to report activities for multifamily in the Commercial tab. This will enable the reporting the installation of large building central heating and cooling equipment, as well as residential type equipment.
Three pieces of information are important to report for multifamily in order to give context: the number of treated units, the total number of units in the building, and the % floorspace affected (for those that treat common spaces).
You can report multifamily retrofits two ways - as a whole building or on a unit by unit basis.
1. Reporting retrofits as one 'whole building'
a. Use the same ID number for the Building ID field and the Project ID field
b. Indicate the number of units treated, total units in the building, and % floor space affected.
c. Report total measures installed and energy savings estimates at the aggregated building level, not unit/apartment level

2. Reporting retrofits on a unit by unit basis
a. Use a different unique Project ID for each unit retrofitted but a common Building ID that is shared between each unit belonging to the same multifamily building.
b. Indicate total units in the building and scope of retrofit.
c. Proceed to report measures installed and energy savings on a unit level.
d. Fill out as many more columns you need for each retrofitted unit

http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/cbecs/glossary_1.html
This unique building ID number will enable tracking of the project through each phase: marketing, audit, financing, and retrofit. Asking grantees to assign a unique building ID number also helps ensure privacy of the building owner connected to the project.

REFRIGERATION EQUIPMENT









































































































































































































The following section is for indicating the installation of any refrigeration equipment. Refrigeration equipment is used for lowering the temperature through a mechanical process. In a typical refrigeration unit, electricity powers a motor that runs a pump to compress the refrigerant to maintain proper pressure. (A "refrigerant" is a substance that changes between liquid and gaseous states under desirable temperature and pressure conditions.) Heat from the compressed liquid is removed and discharged from the unit and the refrigerant then evaporates when pressure is reduced. The refrigerant picks up heat as it evaporates and it returns to the compressor to repeat the cycle. A few refrigeration units use gas (either natural gas or LPG) in an absorption process that does not use a compressor. The gas is burned to heat a chemical solution in which the refrigerant has been absorbed. Heating drives off the refrigerant which is later condensed. The condensed refrigerant evaporates by a release of pressure, and it picks up heat as it evaporates. The evaporated refrigerant is then absorbed back into the chemical solution, the heat is removed from the solution and discharged as waste heat, and the process repeats itself. By definition, refrigerators, freezers, and air-conditioning equipment all contain refrigeration units.

INDUSTRIAL UNDERWRITING CRITERIA









































































































































































































This section is for entering commercial underwriting criteria related to loans made under the BetterBuildings program. Underwriting refers to the terms and conditions under which credit is extended or renewed, such as financial and collateral requirements, repayment programs, maturities, pricing, and covenants.
http://www.occ.treas.gov/topics/credit/commercial-credit/underwriting.html
With an understanding that there are multiple approaches to assess credit quality, we will only require the data that lending institutions use to assess credit quality. No additional data collection is required.






Was borrower personal guarantee required? (1 if Yes)










































































































































































































Indicate if a borrower personal guarantee was required as a condition of the loan. This is common for smaller businesses, and businesses run by individuals.


With an understanding that there are multiple approaches to assess credit quality, we will only require the data that lending institutions use to assess credit quality. No additional data collection is required.






Debt Coverage Ratio (DCR)










































































































































































































The debt coverage ratio is the ratio of monthly debt to the net monthly income of the property in question.
http://www.mortgage101.com/article/commercial-underwriting-guidelines
With an understanding that there are multiple approaches to assess credit quality, we will only require the data that lending institutions use to assess credit quality. No additional data collection is required.






Credit Rating










































































































































































































Credit ratings are forward-looking opinions about credit risk. Credit ratings express the credit rating agency's opinion about the ability and willingness of an issuer, such as a corporation or state or city government, to meet its financial obligations in full and on time. Typically, for larger businesses, ratings are expressed as letter grades that range, for example, from 'AAA' to 'D' to communicate the agency's opinion of relative level of credit risk. If the credit rating is for an individual, as is common for a small business owner, indicate the middle FICO credit score.
http://www.standardandpoors.com/ratings/definitions-and-faqs/en/us
With an understanding that there are multiple approaches to assess credit quality, we will only require the data that lending institutions use to assess credit quality. No additional data collection is required.






Tenant Occupied Building (1 if Occupied)










































































































































































































Indicate if the building being retrofitted is currently occupied by the owner or a tenant, or is unoccupied.


This information better characterizes a distinct segment of commercial retrofits. With an understanding that there are multiple approaches to assess credit quality, we will only require the data that lending institutions use to assess credit quality. No additional data collection is required.






Property Valuation ($)










































































































































































































An estimation of the value of real estate by a person licensed to do so. A person performing an appraisal must receive authorization from the appropriate body of the state in which he/she resides. A real estate appraisal may take into account the quality of the property, values of surrounding properties, and market conditions in the area. It is important for determining the property taxes for which the owner is liable, as well as a potential sale price, if the owner wishes to sell his/her property.

GENERAL PROJECT DATA Quarterly totals are self-calculating









































































































































































































This section is for collecting general data about the project.


Knowing key characteristics of a building helps to provide a benchmark when performing a retrospective evaluation.


Unique Project ID Number 0









































































































































































































Please assign a unique project ID number. Grantees may choose whatever ID numbering system best suits their needs. DOE will append a unique ID in front of the grantee-chosen ID in its database to establish unique IDs across BetterBuilding grantees.


This unique project ID number will enable tracking of the project through each phase: marketing, audit, financing, and retrofit. Asking grantees to assign a unique project ID number also helps ensure privacy of the building owner connected to the project.


If Multifamily: Unique Building ID Number 0









































































































































































































Assign a unique Building ID Number to the entire "site," where more than one "Project" may have occurred. If retrofit occurred in only common spaces, you do not need to enter a Unique Project ID above.

A multifamily unit can be a unit in a building with two to four housing units-- a structure that is divided into living quarters for two, three, or four families, or households in which one household lives above or beside another. This category also includes houses originally intended for occupancy by one family (or for some other use) that have since been converted to separate dwellings for two to four families. Typical arrangements in these types of living quarters are separate apartments downstairs and upstairs or one apartment on each of three or four floors. A multifamily unit can also be a unit in a building with five or more housing units-- a structure that contains living quarters for five or more households or families and in which one household lives above or beside another.

http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/recs/glossary.html
Multifamily homes are important to distinguish from single family homes because they typically have different building characteristics and face unique barriers to retrofits.

INSTALLED MEASURES / MODELED OR ESTIMATED ENERGY SAVINGS










































































































































































































Grantees should report energy savings from program activities. These savings can be calculated using whichever method optimizes the accuracy of the prediction and the reporting time required.


Because recommended audit measures may differ from measures that are actually installed, understanding estimated energy savings of the actual installed equipment is necessary to compare estimated vs. actual energy savings. Utility bills are needed to calculate actual energy savings and costs savings accurately.


Source or method for prediction (drop down)










































































































































































































Grantees should report estimated energy savings based on what was actually installed during the retrofit. Please specify what estimation methodology was used (e.g., post-retrofit quality assurance/quality control assessment, modeled savings, deemed savings, or other methodology)


Please indicate how estimated savings for each project were quantified. These estimates can be compared later with actual savings data from utility bills.

Electricity Expected kWh saved per year for installed measures 0









































































































































































































Include the estimated kWh savings based on the measures installed during the retrofit. This information may be obtained from a post-retrofit quality assurance/quality control assessment, modeled savings, deemed savings, or another method.


This information is needed to compare predicted vs. actual energy savings and to improve cost savings analysis.

Expected % savings kWh for installed measures per year










































































































































































































To determine the estimated percent energy savings, divide the estimated electricity savings (kWh) per year for the installed measures by the building owner's electricity use (kWh) over the past 12 months. Depending on the program, homeowners may receive annual energy use data from audit software or from their utility bill.


This information is needed to compare predicted vs. actual energy savings and to improve cost savings analysis.

With an understanding that there are multiple approaches to assess credit quality, we will only require the data that the lending institutions use to assess credit quality. No additional data collection is required.


Middle Credit Score (FICO)










































































































































































































FICO is an abbreviation for Fair Isaac Corporation and refers to a person's credit score based on credit history. Lenders and credit card companies use the number to decide if the person is likely to pay his or her bills. A credit score is evaluated using information from the three major credit bureaus and is usually between 300 and 850. When evaluating a borrower's eligibility for a loan, financial institutions typically pull the borrower's credit history which contains all three scores. Since the scores may vary slightly, here we ask for the second highest credit score (median), in order to standardize reporting.
http://www.hud.gov/offices/hsg/sfh/buying/glossary.cfm
With an understanding that there are multiple approaches to assess credit quality, we will only require the data that the lending institutions use to assess credit quality. No additional data collection is required.


Debt-to-Income Ratio (Front End)










































































































































































































Debt-to-income ratio is a comparison or ratio of gross income to housing and non-housing expenses. With the FHA, the mortgage payment combined with non-housing debts should not exceed 41% of income. The front-end debt-to-income ratio is calculated with housing debts.
http://www.hud.gov/offices/hsg/sfh/buying/glossary.cfm
With an understanding that there are multiple approaches to assess credit quality, we will only require the data that the lending institutions use to assess credit quality. No additional data collection is required.


Debt-to-Income Ratio (Back End)










































































































































































































Debt-to-income ratio is a comparison or ratio of gross income to housing and non-housing expenses. For example, with the FHA, the-monthly mortgage payment should be no more than 29% of monthly gross income (before taxes). The back-end debt-to-income ratio is calculated with non-housing debts.


With an understanding that there are multiple approaches to assess credit quality, we will only require the data that the lending institutions use to assess credit quality. No additional data collection is required.
