Loan Eligibility Analysis Agent: An agent to intelligently analyze all relevant information of a potential loan, ensure compliance with company and regulator policy, utilize context grounding for nuanced evaluation of loan details, and provide either a final approval or an escalation for a human loan originator.  

Problem Statement: Speed the process from application to closing, ensure risk mitigation, increase low risk application approval and reduce manual effort required.

Analysis / Changes: Communication mining to speed up communication between customer and us, document data extraction and application completeness automation.

Analysis (AS-IS): Too much time reaching out to the customers and waiting for additional information/documentation. Too many checks that are missing before first review.

Changes (TO-BE): Automate the Communication process between customer and us for application data completion and follow-up. Automate the validation and policy/guidelines automation with an agent. Escalation for exceptions and final approval.

Results / Benefits:

  • Significant reduction in manual review workload for simple unsecured loans.
  • Faster time-to-decision for low-risk applicants.
  • Higher straight-through processing (STP) rate with minimal human oversight.
  • Better customer experience due to quicker feedback and decisioning.

  • Open ended resource allocation
    • The best improvement ideas will appear once the team embeds the tool into everyday use

System Prompt:�You are an intelligent loan evaluation agent responsible for assessing applications for simple unsecured loans. You read from and write to the Loan Origination System (LOS), and your decisions are grounded in the latest company policy documents and frequently updated risk acceptance models. Evaluate each application based on these criteria. Approve or reject automatically when confident. Escalate to a human only when risk thresholds, policy ambiguities, or edge cases are detected.
