Frequently Asked Questions

How does iTuring's credit underwriting AI align with the National Credit Act (NCA) and NCR requirements?
The NCA requires lenders to conduct affordability assessments and provide adverse action reasons. iTuring’s credit models produce full explainability per decision, approved or declined, with documentation that satisfies NCA Section 81 affordability and NCR supervisory standards.
Yes. SARB GN 4/2020 requirements, model inventory, independent validation, maker-checker approvals, drift monitoring, and examiner-ready documentation, are all built directly into the platform for South African banking institutions.
FICA requires South African banks to maintain AML/CFT programmes, file Suspicious Transaction Reports, and conduct ongoing customer due diligence. iTuring’s fraud and AML models produce entity-linked case trails, transaction lineage, and documentation that supports FICA compliance and FIC examination.

Banks use it for fraud, collections, retention, operations and generative AI, all governed consistently.
