Lenders today are struggling with fragmented income and credit data. The reality is that while many financial institutions have access to valuable internal data, it's often siloed, outdated, or simply not enough to assess true borrower ability to repay. Traditional credit data only scratches the surface. And as borrowers' financial lives become more fragmented and complex, relying solely on what’s already in the system is no longer enough.
That’s where Conductiv is changing the game.
Based on industry analysis and member expectations, here are the five most critical technology trends that should influence your 2026 budget allocations.

Conductiv addresses key challenges in lending operations related to “stipulation chasing.”
Conductiv has seen significant customer growth during the last year and continues to help CU's achieve “more loans with less work.” Manual stipulation handling is disruptive to loan operations, and by automating this process Conductiv has not only increased approval rates, but has been able to provide AI insights for alternative decisioning.

The webinar covered the challenges of misperceptions about the underserved and unbanked, risk mitigation, and the need for Board buy-in. Shawn Wolbert, CEO of GHS FCU said “With Conductiv being able to verify documentation early on, it makes it easier for the member who’s struggling to get that loan…It bridges a gap between the member and the loan and puts the money into their hands for what they need.”
