You may have heard the term Delphi score but aren’t clear on exactly what this is.

A Delphi score is ultimately an analytical tool. It is designed to determine how credit worthy a company is, including their strength and performance.

Having a good score is very important when it comes to being accepted for finance. The better your company’s credit score, the more you’re likely to be able to borrow.

When a finance company runs a credit check, they want to see that you are at a low risk of failing.

What is a good Delphi score?

The score ranges from 0 to 100 with the lowest scoring companies carrying the highest risk.

If a company has a score of zero this means that the company has failed or has dissolved. A zero score means they can’t apply for credit without reference to an external authority e.g. a Receiver has been appointed.

A score between 51-80 indicates a below average risk, 81-90 a low risk, and 91-100 a very low risk. These ranges are where you want your business to be to increase your chances of loan acceptance.

How will a company get the finance it needs?

We will only approach finance companies whose requirements match with your circumstances and we’ll tailor your application to ensure they know that you are a loan worthy applicant.

It is so important to get your application right first time round. A ‘no’ from one underwriter leaves you with a negative financial footprint that can follow you to whichever finance company you next approach. This is why using a brilliant broker will benefit you – less stress, less time spent worrying, and getting the right finance for you.

We have an acceptance rate of 84% (compared to your average broker at 70%).
