After your credit score is determined, then a business can determine your ‘acceptable risk’ or the higher the risk (for not paying a loan back), the higher the interest and vice versa So how is your credit score determine? 1. Payment history: have you paid people back ON TIME 2. Outstanding debt/credit ratio: How much do you OWE based on the line of CREDIT that you have? For example: if you owe $500 on a $500 credit card limit, you have a HIGH debt to credit ratio 3. Account History: length of your accounts open 4. Recent Inquiries: How often do companies/businesses check your credit report? How often do you? 5. Types of credit: Do you have a mortage, credit card, and a car loan? Do you have all credit cards?
