Fintech One•On•One

Adrian Nazari, CEO of Credit Sesame, on giving consumers deep insights into credit behavior


Listen Later

If there is one thing that the last decade of fintech innovation has achieved, it is more awareness around consumer credit scores. The majority of the population know their approximate score and even teenagers are talking about it. For better or worse (I think it almost uniformly positive) consumers look at the score as a measure, maybe even the measure, of their financial health.

My next guest on the Fintech One on One podcast is Adrian Nazari, the CEO and Founder of Credit Sesame. It is companies like Credit Sesame that have been at the forefront of the increased awareness of credit scores. Now, with a new B2B offering they are poised to reach even more consumers than ever before.

In this podcast you will learn:

  • Why he decided to start Credit Sesame.
  • What is still missing to help consumers manage their credit.
  • What Credit Sesame offers for consumers today.
  • The various ways they are using AI at Credit Sesame.
  • Why they are exclusively focused on credit for financial wellness.
  • Why they decided to start a B2B offering.
  • Who they are focused on with this product.
  • How Adrian is managing both a direct to consumer and a B2B offering.
  • Why he thinks the B2B side will be the growth driver moving forward.
  • How they are working with lenders to improve the borrower experience.
  • How they are different to Credit Karma.
  • The state of the US consumer today when it comes to their credit score.
  • His vision for Credit Sesame.
