For already marginalized communities errors on a credit report could have an extremely negative impact on the financial health of a household. Consumer Reports and partner experts will discuss how the major credit reporting companies — Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion crediting reporting systems negatively impact communities of color.

We also will have a special action where you can be apart of a Consumer Reports’ people-powered research project where you can ensure credit and lending decisions are made fairly, without discrimination, and without errors that work against the borrower.
