Abstract

An automated deal processing for customers is disclosed, and includes prompting a customer for at least one deal parameter, such as loan amount, prompting the customer for information relating to the customer, such as collateral offered by the customer, accessing in real-time information relating to the credit history of the customer, applying a plurality of origination rules, such as exclusionary rules, pricing rules, risk rules, and edit preference rules, to the at least one deal parameter and the information relating to the customer, applying at least one strategy, such as compensation for risk, repair, or upsell, to the results of the application of the rules, generating at least one deal based on the accessing and applying of the strategy, and presenting the customer with the at least one option. In a preferred embodiment, the automated process of deal structuring is based on the needs and/or the preferences of the customer.
