Equifax launches Mortgage Score Select to capitalize on multi-score trend and FHA tailwind

Oct 8, 2026, 4:54 PM EDT2 sourcesAI-analyzed
Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

The new product could elevate Equifax’s data-services revenue via scoring-licensing and usage fees. FHA timing creates a longer-term tailwind, while near-term repull pricing monetizes on-loan file activity; similar data-analytics product launches have produced modest, durable upside when adoption scales.
