Importance of Credit in Today's Economy

Office/Remote Location

Virtual

Description

Your credit history can influence more than your ability to qualify for a loan. It may also affect interest rates, housing opportunities, insurance costs and, in some cases, employment decisions. Understanding how credit works can help you make more informed financial choices and avoid costly mistakes.

In this Webinar, participants will learn what credit is, how credit scores are calculated and which factors can positively or negatively affect them. We will discuss practical strategies for establishing or improving credit, review the information commonly included in a credit report and explain how to dispute inaccurate information. Participants will also learn steps they can take to protect their personal information and reduce the risk of identity theft.
