Does FICO care about this?

Anonymous · ‎12-30-2008

7/12 of my accounts on my CR's are from the same credit union. 3 of those 7 are open. Does anyone know if FICO cares about diversity between lenders?

Thanks

FICO does not care, only in that you have a good mix of credit (product types) and FICO is reported to care whether or not you bank with a CU. I wouldn't know why and any score impact is super-minimal, if any.

That is good about the lender diversity. I have 3 accounts open with a CU and 3 accounts open with various banks.

CU:

Credit Card

HELOC(Reporting as a Mortgage )

Car

Banks:

Mortgage

Credit Card x2

Any other account types I can add?
