The Zhitong Finance App learned that on Thursday, Fair Isaac (FICO.US) stock soared 28% at the beginning of the session to $1905.26. According to the news, the credit scoring company previously introduced a new pricing model that allows mortgage lenders to calculate and distribute FICO scores directly to borrowers. Under Fair Isaac's new option, lenders can choose to avoid credit bureau mark-up fees, but when a FICO rated loan is closed, they will pay Fair Isaac $33 per rating.

Will Lansing, CEO of Fair Isaac, said, “Direct authorization to use FICO scores brings transparency, competitiveness and cost efficiency to the mortgage process. This change removes unnecessary markups on FICO ratings and leaves the choice of pricing models to those who use FICO scores to make mortgage decisions.”
