Importance of personal credit investigation:
Credit investigation is an indispensable part of modern society, and its importance is reflected in its influence on individuals, banks and society.
1. It affects personal loans, handling credit cards, and finding jobs
If the credit status is good and there is no breach of contract, the application for loans and handling credit cards can be approved by the bank more quickly. Not only that, due to the good credit status, when borrowing, you may get certain discounts on loan interest rate and loan amount.
2. Help banks to make decisions more conveniently
Before credit investigation, it is difficult for banks to fully know the credit status of customers, so they can't make decisions on whether or not to lend and how much to lend quickly and conveniently. After the People's Bank of China organized commercial banks to input the credit information of citizens and enterprises into personal credit files, whenever banks need to make decisions, they can query customers' credit files and make decisions quickly.
3. Promote the social trustworthiness
As credit information will affect personal loans and job hunting, the cost of dishonesty will be higher, thus promoting people to keep their promises and promoting the social trustworthiness.
