Strategic Analytics Introduces Specialist Services for Retail Lenders: Names Dr. David Ingram as Senior Analyst
Santa Fe, NM | March 21, 2007 – Strategic Analytics Inc., a leading provider of analytical software for retail lenders, today introduced a range of client services to model and evaluate consumer loan portfolios. Lenders can engage Strategic Analytics to perform services using methodologies that include Scenario-based Forecasting, Portfolio Stress Testing and Economic Capital Modeling, for all retail loan portfolios including: Mortgage, Home Equity, Auto, Credit Card, Small Business, and Personal Loans.
"Current difficulties with sub-prime mortgages and the recent bankruptcy law change reveal the challenges that confront banks, consumer finance companies and mortgage lenders," said Dr. Joseph Breeden, President and Chief Operating Officer at Strategic Analytics. "Traditional account scoring models and performance attribution techniques cannot cope with dynamic market and regulatory environments. Strategic Analytics’ products are strategic, time-dependent tools that address emerging areas of best-practice in retail lending. These new services extend the unique benefits of our LookAhead™ and TrueCapital™ software products to a wider range of consumer lenders."
In addition to introducing new services, Strategic Analytics is augmenting its team of economics and modeling experts. The company today named David Ingram as Senior Analyst, reporting to Dr. Breeden. Dr. Ingram joins the team of analysts who perform client services and work in close cooperation with client analysts in order that the work product is fully integrated into existing portfolio and risk management initiatives. Dr. Ingram was previously Senior Economist at Torto Wheaton Research, a commercial real estate consultancy, where he was responsible for modeling and forecasting U.S. and Canadian commercial real estate performance. Dr. Ingram earned his Ph.D. in Economics at Kansas State University and received his BA from the University of Tennessee.
