The Credit Score is calculated using an algorithm based on modern predictive analytics methodologies. The same methodologies are commonly used in multiple global credit bureaus and banks. They take the vast information available in credit profiles into account, comparing this information to credit history and behavior of all individuals or companies in the UAE.

No individual or company is required to submit any information. Etihad Credit Bureau collects the information directly from the Information Providers as per its mandate under the Federal Credit Information Law (6) of 2010 and its amendment in Federal Decree Law No. (8) of 2020.

Financial Institutions provide Etihad Credit Bureau with information, such as banks and finance companies. At the same time, information is provided by non-financial companies – such as telecom operators and large conglomerates – and government entities including courts and water and electricity providers. We also regularly assess the value of credit information sources and add them in line with the necessary laws and regulations.

Entities accessing your credit report must first have your consent. This aligns with the UAE Federal Law No. (6) of 2010 on Credit Information and its amendment in Federal Decree Law No. (8) of 2020. Any company subscribing to Etihad Credit Bureau services, such as UAE banks, telecommunication companies or government entities can request reports on their customers without their consent if a payment is outstanding.

You can access all previously purchased Credit Reports and Credit Scores through the Etihad Credit Bureau app or by logging into Etihad Credit Bureau website and viewing the Purchase History section.
