CreditGo, a part of CompareAsiaGroup, Asia's leading financial management platformfor banking and insurance, was created in response to the need for raisingpublic awareness on the importance of credit score. According to a survey onHong Kong Credit Score Report conducted in September 2017*, consumers in HongKong are highly aware of the concept of credit score, but lack knowledge of howit works. 97% of respondents to the survey have heard of credit score, butabout half of them have very limited understanding of the use of credit scoresand how it may influence their lives. Only 50% of respondents know the score'simpact on interest rate; and even less know its impact on employment. Over 70%of consumers consider obtaining their credit scores and reports in the future,and almost all of them want to know how the score impacts their lives. CreditGohelps consumers safeguard their financial welfare by increasing their awarenessof credit score.

Consumers prefer getting information about saving and financialhealth through independent third parties. Even people that currently have bothpersonal loans and home loans still say they will apply for a new loan in thenext 12 months. Thus, it is paramount that people have a complete understandingof their credit profiles.
