The lender will avoid lending money to someone who has settled accounts or missed the repayments as it is a huge risk.
5. Inquiries Section:
   1. This section offers details of the number of inquiries that are made on the consumer. A higher number of inquiries suggests that the consumer is asking for credit
   2. If the number of inquiries is more, the lender will know that the consumer is going around asking for credit. Even after several inquiries, the consumer is still unable to receive a credit, it suggests that the consumer is not able to manage his credit efficiently.
