Affordability - a solution to ensure responsible lending
The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) in the UK released two papers in 2017 on affordability and financial distress (OP28 and CP17/27). Lenders are using data from CRA's and metrics that are not entirely suitable for determining affordability, which is leading to default and resultant financial distress.
​
We have a developed a solution that will provide real time affordability information to be used by lenders, in addition to existing data sources. The solution proposes using open banking/PSD2 to extract borrowers transactional data to provide an accurate assessment of their affordability. We have been approved to test the solution in the FCA's regulatory sandbox.

DIGIDEEDS - Modernising South Africas state provided housing registry
The current deeds distribution system is inefficient, cumbersome and costly. It is estimated that the backlog of title deeds for RDP homeowners is 900,000, and the current system is not capable of dealing with this increased volume.
The solution is a transparent, digitised title deeds registry, to be built on the ethereum blockchain, that’s accessible to the public and easily verifiable by trusted officials.
