AI Bank Statement Analyzer for Automated Credit Risk Assessment

What is the current underwriting problem?

TAT delays

Manual statement review is slow

Analysts spend time normalizing PDF statements and identifying patterns manually, increasing turnaround time and operational cost.

Missed signals

Risk signals are inconsistent

Without structured classification, important indicators like irregular cashflow and abnormal spending may be missed or interpreted differently by teams.

Fraud exposure

Fraud checks are fragmented

Single-statement analysis and weak cross-account visibility make it difficult to catch circular transfers and manipulated activity early.

What is Bank Statement Analysis?

Definition

Bank statement analysis is the process of extracting transaction-level data from statements and converting it into structured insights about income, expenses, liabilities, liquidity, and borrower behavior.

Why lenders use it

Lenders use bank statement analysis to make faster and more defensible credit decisions by measuring repayment capacity, financial stability, and risk patterns from real cashflow behavior.

How Credstack Bank Statement Analyzer works

Step 1

Statement Ingestion

Upload PDF bank statements or connect directly through secure banking APIs.
