A credit reporting agency collects information from various sources and provides credit information on a person’s borrowing and bill-paying habits. This helps lenders assess whether to lend money to the person. These agencies compile data on credit history, payment patterns, and outstanding debts, offering a comprehensive view of an individual’s creditworthiness to potential lenders.
