New regulations begin today (Wednesday July 15th) for shoppers using Buy Now Pay Later. Consumers using services like Klarna and Clearpay will now be given more protection but also a greater risk of rejection, as new affordability checks begin. BNPL schemes often provide interest free payment options over several months and have proved immensely popular. Experian estimates that a 100mn transactions were made that way last year, adding up to about £7bn. Meanwhile, new data from one of the country's largest free money advice services, Money Wellness, shows BNPL has become an increasingly common feature of customers' finances over the past four years, with June recording 4,520 customers seeking help with BNPL debt. That's the highest June on record and second only to the traditional post-Christmas spike seen in January.Presenter Felicity Hannah talks to the Financial Conduct Authority to find out if the new rules are going to improve things for shoppers. She's joined by an expert panel answering listener questions – Mick McAteer of The Financial Inclusion Centre, a UK not-for-profit policy and research group. and Matthew Sheeran from Money Wellness.Presenter: Felicity Hannah Producer: Craig Henderson Editor: Jess Quayle Senior News Editor: Sara WadesonPhoto credit: Pakorn Supajitsoontorn via Getty Images.

Credit sweeps are a federal felony, and credit repair business owners are going to prison for them. FCRA attorney Haseeb Hussain joins Daniel and Keenan to explain exactly where credit repair ends and where a felony begins. Join Our FREE Start Repairing Credit Challenge: HERE  Haseeb sues Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion for a living, and he has watched the credit sweep problem explode. A sweep means telling the bureaus that legitimate debts came from identity theft, and every fake letter or FTC report can stack up mail fraud, wire fraud, and CROA violations. He walks through the real cases: operators handed five, eight, even ten years in federal prison, profits disgorged, and clients pulled in as accomplices. He also gets into the ugliest new variant, credit repair companies filing fake human trafficking claims to exploit the Debt Bondage Repair Act, and why enforcement is ramping up fast. Then he flips it to what legitimate, defensible credit repair actually looks like. It comes back to one word: inaccuracies. Running the report line by line with your client, sending clear disputes, and building a real FCRA case when an inaccuracy actually causes harm. You will also hear the exact steps to take in real identity theft, from freezing your reports to filing police, FTC, and CFPB reports, plus why background check errors can be some of the most valuable FCRA cases and the credit myths Haseeb wishes would die. Whether you are just starting your credit repair business or scaling one, this is the conversation that keeps you on the right side of the law. Tune in!  P.S.

A credit report audit before Round 1 is the difference between fast credit repair results and months of wasted dispute rounds, and most Credit Heroes skip it. Join Our FREE Start Repairing Credit Challenge: http://startrepairingcredit.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=344&utm_term=creditrepair Daniel Rosen has spent more than 20 years in this business, and he sees the same mistake constantly. A Credit Hero opens a new client's report, sees a pile of negatives, grabs a template, and fires off disputes on everything at once. Thirty days later half of it comes back "verified," and the whole case stalls. The reason is simple: there was never a plan. Round 1 went out before anyone actually read the file. That is what the audit fixes. Before you dispute a single item, you read the whole report top to bottom and check: Personal info for old or mixed-up names, addresses and employers The positive open accounts that are helping the file, so you know not to touch them Credit utilization, which sometimes holds the score down more than the negatives do The damage itself: late payments, charge-offs and collections Experian, Equifax and TransUnion against each other, since they rarely match The good news is you don't have to do any of that by hand. Inside Credit Repair Cloud, you click Import/Audit, pick your template, and the Simple Audit reads the report and lays it all out. You can even show that audit to a lead on a consultation so they can see exactly where they stand, which is what turns a lead into a paying client. Once you know the file, then you dispute, starting with verification and putting the burden of proof on the bureau or furnisher. From there you factually dispute the real errors with your proof behind them. Tune in!  P.S.

Tom Gadsden is Vice President of Product at Shufti, the London-based identity-verification and fraud-prevention platform built to let businesses onboard and screen users across borders in seconds rather than days. Gadsden has spent more than a decade building identity and financial-crime products, with earlier roles at credit bureau Experian and in card payments, giving him a close view of how fraud has scaled from a cottage problem into an industry. Why you should listen Shufti sits at an awkward and revealing intersection of the crypto economy. Bitcoin was designed to strip out gatekeepers; Shufti, and the compliance layer it represents, exists to put a version of them back. Gadsden doesn't pretend that tension away. He accepts that know-your-customer checks are anathema to part of the crypto community, and that self-hosted wallets will always let people move funds outside the system. But where crypto collides with fiat on- and off-ramps, governments have decided they want to see where money comes from and where it goes, and firms like Shufti, alongside chain-analytics players such as Chainalysis and Elliptic, are how businesses meet that expectation. He reaches for a useful historical parallel: the card-payments crackdown that arrived with Europe's PSD2 rules, when regulators decided the fraud losses banks had quietly tolerated were grey money the wider economy shouldn't have to absorb. Stablecoin growth, he argues, makes that scrutiny more likely, not less. The most gripping stretch of the conversation is on deepfakes, where Gadsden describes an arms race that has already run through several generations. Shufti is on the third iteration of its detection models, having moved past early metadata tells to techniques that examine how synthetic images blend, how their frequency signatures break down, and what shows up outside the visible spectrum where the generators stop trying. What has really changed, he says, is economics: AI dragged the cost of a convincing fake from tens of dollars to cents, turning fraud into something closer to a production line, with the same operator filing attempt after attempt from bed. The surge is real, with Shufti warning of a many-fold jump in deepfaked-document attacks year over year. The counterintuitive twist is that as detection has caught up, the pendulum has swung back toward human beings: real faces recruited down the pub, and money mules who sail through the initial check and only later start moving other people's money. Catching those cases, Gadsden explains, means watching for behavioral tells, funds fanning in and straight back out, high velocity and low retention, the classic setup where someone keeps fifty pounds for passing thousands through their account. Gadsden is also sharp on where the regulatory map is heading. He reads Tether's retreat from Europe, its USDT effectively pulled from regulated EU exchanges under MiCA, and Binance's withdrawn licensing bid in Greece, as a live test of whether hard rules end up pushing offshore the very firms regulators most want to supervise. On the perennial privacy question he's bracingly unsentimental: anyone uneasy about sharing their face should be far more wary of handing over an iris, a pointed nod to Sam Altman's World project, and even the privacy-forward EU Digital Identity Wallet will still ask for your name, date of birth and a biometric. His honest expectation is that a genuinely high-privacy identity system isn't coming for a decade or two. He closes on a contrarian note for his own industry: the physical passport and plastic driver's license that products like Shufti are built to read will, he suspects, erode faster than most insiders think as digital IDs become the default. It's a clear-eyed, occasionally unsettling tour of the machinery now standing between you and the fraudsters.

What does it mean to build products that truly work for everyone — including the people most systems were never designed to include? Debbie Hsu, EVP of Product at Experian Consumer Services, joins Toni for a conversation that spans the full arc of her career — from software engineer at Oracle to leading product at one of the world's most significant consumer financial data companies — and gets into some of the most important questions facing product leaders today. Debbie leads the evolution of EVA, Experian's AI-powered virtual assistant, and brings a consumer-first lens to everything she builds. In this episode she shares how AI is changing team structures and role boundaries in product, why over-reliance on AI risks making every product look and sound the same, and what the socioeconomic stakes of AI access mean for product leaders who care about inclusion. She also shares three pieces of advice that I see as foundational to leading: Being humble is not the same as being invisible. Self-advocacy is not the same as bragging. And never let an official meeting be the first time people hear about your idea. What we cover: ⏹ The unplanned path from software engineer to EVP of Product — and what learning by doing really looks like ⏹ Why Debbie went back to business school to pivot into product management — and what actually landed her the job ⏹ How product leadership has evolved over 20 years: from Flash-based seat maps to AI-powered financial assistants ⏹ T-shaped builders and the blurring of roles in the AI era — what this means for product teams right now ⏹ The AI homogeneity risk: why over-reliance on AI makes products look and sound the same — and what differentiates the ones that don't ⏹ EVA: how Experian's AI assistant uses trusted credit data, expert compliance, and lender eligibility to go beyond generic AI responses ⏹ AI access as a socioeconomic equity issue — and why product leaders need to be part of this conversation ⏹ Financial inclusion and credit invisibility: what it means to build products for people the system overlooked ⏹ Being humble is not the same as being invisible ⏹ Self-advocacy is not bragging — and why visibility for meaningful work is a leadership skill ⏹ Never let an official meeting be the first time people hear your idea ⏹ Diverse voices in product: why every product leader has a responsibility to build inclusively Useful Links Connect with today's guest and sponsor, Debbie on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/debbie-hsu/ and find out more about Experian at https://www.experian.com.

What if the most valuable business intelligence in your organisation has been hiding inside your contracts all along? Recorded live at Docusign Momentum in London, this episode explores why enterprise AI is at an inflection point. After years of focusing on what AI can create, the conversation is shifting towards how AI can help organisations understand the information they already have, remove friction from everyday work, and make better business decisions. Joining me is Allan Thygesen, CEO of Docusign. While many people still associate Docusign with electronic signatures, Allan explains why the company's vision has expanded far beyond that single moment in the agreement process.  Every business runs on agreements, from customer contracts and supplier relationships to employee onboarding and partnerships. The real opportunity, he argues, is transforming those agreements from static documents into business intelligence that helps organisations improve performance, reduce risk and uncover value that has often remained hidden for years. We discuss why decades of historical agreements are becoming increasingly valuable in the age of AI, how organisations are using agreement intelligence to shorten sales cycles from days to hours, and why understanding the context behind agreements can be just as important as the agreements themselves. Allan also shares his perspective on the rise of agentic AI, explaining why trust, governance and compliance will ultimately determine how quickly organisations allow AI to take on greater responsibility. Rather than viewing AI as another standalone tool, he explains why the future lies in connecting trusted data and workflows across the systems businesses already use every day. Throughout our conversation, we also explore why Docusign continues to build an open ecosystem through partnerships with companies including Anthropic, Harvey, Legora, OpenAI, Google, Salesforce, SAP and Thomson Reuters, enabling organisations to work with agreement intelligence wherever work already happens. After spending the day at Momentum hearing from customers like Harvey, Legora, Experian and AON, executives and attendees, one theme kept emerging. The organisations creating the greatest value from AI are not necessarily adopting the most AI. They're using it to remove friction, improve decisions and help people focus on work that genuinely benefits the business. Does your organisation still think of contracts as administrative files, or are they becoming a strategic source of business intelligence? I'd love to hear your thoughts after listening and continue the conversation.  

What does it take to leave a prestigious law career, join the most hated government program in history, and then launch a fintech startup with no clients, no marketing materials, and no industry relationships?

1 Corinthians 4:2 says, “Moreover, it is required of stewards that they be found faithful.” Faithful stewardship does not happen by accident. The choices we make with money can either create unnecessary pressure or help us manage God's resources with wisdom, margin, and faithfulness. Here are six financial choices that can help us steward well what God has entrusted to us. 1. Spend With a Plan Proverbs 27:23 says, “Know well the condition of your flocks, and give attention to your herds.” For us, that means knowing what is coming in, what is going out, and whether our spending reflects our values. Without a plan, money tends to drift. A budget helps us practice faithfulness with what God has provided. A spending plan is not about restriction for its own sake. It is about clarity. It helps us make decisions with purpose instead of simply reacting to whatever feels urgent in the moment. 2. Choose the Right Car for Your Budget Most of us need reliable transportation. We need to get from point A to point B safely. But it is easy to confuse reliable transportation with a vehicle that strains the budget. According to Kelley Blue Book, the average new vehicle transaction price was more than $49,000. Experian reports that the average monthly payment for a new vehicle reached $770. And that is before insurance, fuel, maintenance, repairs, and depreciation. At FaithFi, we generally prefer being free and clear of car debt when possible. That may mean buying used, driving a car longer, or choosing function over status. The point is not to impress others with what we drive. The goal is to get where we need to go safely and wisely. 3. Count the Cost Before Taking on Debt Proverbs 22:7 says, “The borrower is the slave of the lender.” That does not mean all borrowing is sinful. But borrowing should never be treated casually. If we go into debt, we should make sure the economic benefit outweighs the cost. The question is not simply, “Can I afford the payment?” A better question is, “Will this strengthen my financial position, or will it create more pressure later?” Debt often makes today feel easier while making tomorrow more difficult. Wise stewardship requires us to look beyond the monthly payment and consider the long-term cost. 4. Prepare for the Unexpected Cars break down. Medical bills come. Jobs change. Homes need repairs. Proverbs 21:20 says, “Precious treasure and oil are in a wise man's dwelling, but a foolish man devours it.” Saving is not hoarding when it is done with humility and wisdom. An emergency fund can help us avoid high-interest debt and make decisions prayerfully rather than desperately. Preparedness does not mean we are trusting in money instead of God. It means we are stewarding what He has provided so we can respond wisely when needs arise. 5. Choose Housing That Leaves Margin Homeownership can be a worthy goal, but owning a home is not the definition of financial faithfulness. Renting is not a waste when it provides affordable shelter and flexibility. The danger comes when we feel pressured to buy simply to say we have “made it.” If the payment is too large, we may become house poor—owning a home but lacking margin for giving, saving, repairs, utilities, food, transportation, and other necessities. We typically recommend keeping housing costs at 25-30% of take-home pay. We also generally recommend a 20% down payment when possible. But the goal is not simply to get into a house. The goal is to maintain affordable shelter and utilities while stewarding the rest of the budget. Recent housing data shows why this matters. A typical family earning the national median income needed about 32% of its income to cover the mortgage payment on a median-priced home. If homeownership is possible within wise limits, that is wonderful. But if renting allows you to maintain margin and faithfulness, do not despise it. 6. Make the Most of a Workplace Retirement Match Investing may not feel urgent when there are bills to pay today. But if your employer offers a retirement match, failing to contribute enough to receive it may leave part of your compensation unused. This is not about trusting in wealth for security. 1 Timothy 6:17 reminds us not to set our hopes “on the uncertainty of riches, but on God.” But trusting God does not mean ignoring wise preparation. If a workplace match is available, it can be a practical opportunity to steward well what has been provided through your employment. Start With Honesty and Surrender So where do we begin? Not with guilt or fear, but with honesty and surrender. Stewardship means being responsible in both the big and small financial decisions because everything we have belongs to God. That includes the budget, the car, the debt decision, the emergency fund, the housing payment, and the retirement match. None of these choices is isolated. Together, they shape how we manage what God has entrusted to us.

He's been self-employed for most of our marriage, and we've never really invested or saved much for retirement. We don't have a 401(k), and if we retired, we'd mostly rely on Social Security and would need to cut back significantly. My husband doesn't really want to retire, but I feel like we haven't been faithful stewards and need to start doing something. Where should we begin? My wife passed away in December, and I may be receiving life insurance proceeds. If I deposit that money into my checking account, will it affect my Social Security benefits in any way? I have to take required minimum distributions from my IRA each year. I've heard that if I give to charity directly from my IRA, it can reduce the taxable amount of my RMD. Is that correct, and is there a specific way I need to do that? I'm almost 70 and in a blended family. The money I earned and invested before marriage is separate from my husband and will go to my daughters. After I moved investments between firms and lost money, my current advisor put me into three annuities. I want security, wise stewardship, and a way to leave something for my children, but I'm confused about the annuities, taxes, and withdrawals from these pre-tax IRA accounts. I'd also like a Certified Kingdom Advisor to review my situation. What should I do?

Credit repair is not just a personal finance topic. If you want to use DSCR loans to scale your real estate portfolio, it is the first step, not an afterthought.In this episode, I break down exactly why your personal credit score determines whether a DSCR loan will work for you at all. Your credit score determines your rate. Your rate determines your cash flow. And your cash flow determines whether the deal makes you money or costs you money.I am also sharing something personal. My own credit took a hit from an ongoing business debt issue that has lasted over 18 months. I am currently working with Freedom Debt Relief to get it settled and cleaned up. Yes, that means a temporary hit to my credit bureau for six to twelve months. But the alternative is staying stuck, paying 20 to 22 percent interest on deals that should never have gotten that expensive in the first place.This episode is for the investor who keeps getting told to leverage up and buy more without anyone explaining that personal debt is the actual gatekeeper to every DSCR loan you will ever try to close.In this episode:— Why personal debt determines your DSCR rate before you ever submit an application— The credit score thresholds DSCR lenders actually require, from 600 to 720 and above— How to use the Experian mortgage credit score to see where you really stand— The debt snowball method and how to actually pay off personal debt that is holding you back— Why a 1.25 DSCR ratio is the target in every market condition, good, bad, and crappy— How to stress test rents using 10, 20, and 30 percent reduction scenarios— My own credit repair journey and why I chose debt settlement over the snowball method— The financial freedom sequence every investor needs to follow before chasing more propertiesIf your personal debt is holding back your real estate goals, share this episode with someone who needs to hear it.

Welcome to a packed Monday edition of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, hosted by Malcolm Harris and Michael Vincent! In this episode, we dive deep into a multi-state cargo theft operation that recently led to eight indictments in New York after diverting $4.5 million worth of freight—ranging from beef and copper to massive hauls of cigarettes. Michael also shares a frustrating personal story about the disappearing security of airport valet tickets after his $3,000 Martin guitar vanished on a direct flight. On a brighter note, we highlight the Broker Carrier Summit's exciting launch of the "Veterans in Logistics" initiative in Kansas City, naming John Tozer to lead the charge in connecting military veterans with great careers in transportation. Our first featured guest is small business credit fintech guru Gerri Detweiler, who explains why owner-operators must treat their business credit with the same urgency as their next load. Gerri breaks down how business credit reports are compiled behind the scenes by bureaus like Dun & Bradstreet, Experian, and Equifax to influence lenders, fuel card issuers, and insurance companies. Closing out the show is Aqil Naeem, founder and CEO of the e three group, the first AI transformation partner for middle-market and enterprise freight companies. Aqil explains that as traditional cybersecurity improves, sophisticated bad actors are pivoting to physical cargo theft because defenses in logistics haven't kept pace. ⁠Watch on YouTube⁠ ⁠Visit our sponsor - KOONER FLEET MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS⁠ ⁠Subscribe to the WTT newsletter⁠ ⁠Apple Podcasts⁠ ⁠Spotify⁠ ⁠More FreightWaves Podcasts⁠ #WHATTHETRUCK #FreightNews #supplychain Learn more about your ad choices.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1348: Today we cover Tesla raising Model Y prices for the first time in years, lenders diving deeper into subprime auto financing, and why automotive advertising is quietly losing market share.Show Notes with links:Tesla just bumped prices on several higher-trim Model Y variants for the first time in two years, signaling confidence that EV demand may be heating back up. Meanwhile, Wall Street is still trying to decide if the stock is charging ahead or stuck in traffic.Tesla raised prices by $1,000 on the Model Y Premium RWD and AWD trims, while the Performance trim climbed by $500.Entry-level Model Y versions remain unchanged, suggesting Tesla is protecting affordability while testing premium demand elasticity.Analysts point to rising gas prices and battery material costs as possible drivers behind the move.Despite the pricing confidence, TSLA stock slid over 4% Friday and dipped again Monday as investors weigh slowing momentum and new technical buy points.Auto lenders are diving deeper into subprime financing as affordability pressures push buyers back into the market and lenders get more aggressive chasing deals. The result? More approvals, higher payments, and longer loan terms.Subprime and deep subprime borrowers made up 15.4% of all auto loans and leases in Q4, the highest share since 2021.Average interest rates are eye-popping: 13.2% for subprime new-car loans and nearly 22% for deep subprime used-car loans.Dealers say lenders are “digging a little deeper” rather than dramatically lowering standards, helped by better data and digital document verification.Experian's Melinda Zabritski summed it up saying, “As affordability remains top of mind, both lenders and consumers are adapting.”For decades, automotive advertising practically was the ad industry. But now, shrinking OEM budgets, EV uncertainty, and Tesla-style marketing strategies are changing the game and auto's share of ad spend is slipping below a historic benchmark.Automotive advertising is projected to fall below 10% of total ad category spend for the first time ever tracked by Guideline.The category shrank roughly 7% in 2025, with spending pressure continuing into 2026.Analysts point to weaker EV momentum and automakers scaling back electric initiatives as major contributors.Newer brands are ditching traditional “big splash” campaigns in favor of leaner marketing approaches, following Tesla's no-advertising playbook.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast  as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Learn how to prepare for early retirement and deal with credit report errors that won't go away. Why are credit report errors getting harder to fix? How do you prepare for retirement if you may have to stop working earlier than expected? Hosts Sean Pyles and Elizabeth Ayoola discuss early retirement planning to help you understand how to build a backup plan before an income shock forces your hand. But first, news writer Anna Helhoski joins Sean Pyles to discuss ProPublica's reporting on weaker Consumer Financial Protection Bureau oversight and credit bureau complaint handling with Joel Jacobs, data reporter at ProPublica. They discuss falling relief rates at Experian and TransUnion, how errors can damage borrowing and housing options, and what records to keep when you challenge a mistake. Then, after a prompt from listener Lisa, Sean and Elizabeth discuss preparing for an early or forced retirement. They discuss how to pressure-test your nest egg with a CFP, how tools like the 72(t) rule and Social Security can help cover an income gap before age 59½, and how part-time work, lower debt, and cheaper housing can make an unexpected retirement more manageable.

What will personal finance actually look like five years from now? Will we all have AI money assistants? Will financial advisors still exist? And could technology finally make managing money easier instead of more overwhelming? In this episode, Shari Rash sits down with Dacy Yee, President of Experian Consumer Services, to talk about how technology is transforming the financial world—and what it means for everyday people trying to make smarter decisions with their money. Dacy shares her unexpected career journey from law school to leading one of the largest consumer finance platforms in the world, why many careers (including hers) take unexpected turns, and the advice that helped her move into executive leadership. The conversation also dives into how technology, AI, and automation could remove many of the barriers that have historically kept people out of financial conversations—from fear of asking “dumb questions” to the belief that you need a lot of money before you deserve advice. You'll hear how tools like Experian's new “Big Financial Friend” initiative aim to make personal finance more approachable, how AI could act as a financial co-pilot that helps you make better decisions automatically, and why the future of finance might actually feel more human—not less. Shari and Dacy also talk about women in finance, the importance of speaking up about your career goals, and why the advice “declare what you want” can change the trajectory of your career. This episode will leave you thinking differently about where technology is taking our financial lives—and how you can use it to your advantage. You'll hear: Why many careers in finance happen by accident rather than design How AI and technology will change personal finance in the next five years Why access and personalization will define the future of financial advice How tools like Experian's virtual assistant help remove shame and barriers around money The career advice that helped Dacy move into executive leadership What a “life credit report” might actually measure If you're ready for personalized, judgment-free financial guidance, learn more about working with Shari.

Experian is one of those giant multinationals convoluted enough to have multiple CEOs all over the world, so first I asked Alex Lintner, Experian's CEO of technology and software solutions, to dig into the classic Decoder questions and explain how all of that even works. He oversees big operations like security and privacy, and now, of course, AI. If you want to participate in the modern economy — rent an apartment, buy a car, get a job, etc  — you're part of Experian's ecosystem, whether you like it or not. At its heart, Experian's core service is data about people and the choices they make. And this extremely valuable data weirdly makes Experian a part of your life  — a life that becomes much smoother if the data the company collects about you tells a good story.  Links:  Roughly half of Americans are knowledgeable about personal finance | Pew Research How Americans view data privacy | Pew Research Consumer voices on credit reports and scores | CFPB Mercedes-Benz CEO Ola Källenius on Decoder | The Verge The Palantir app ICE uses to find neighborhoods to raid | 404 Media T-Mobile customers exposed in major Experian breach (2015) | The Verge All the news about the Equifax breach | The Verge Subscribe to The Verge to access the ad-free version of Decoder!
