What exactly is a FUND^® Score?

The FUND^® Score is the best predictor of performance of a franchise system that publicly available information can provide. It is similar to a consumer’s FICO score. The maximum number of points a franchise system can earn in the Franchise Credit Scoring (FUND) Model is 950.

Why is the FUND^® Score Important?

A brand’s FUND^® Score demonstrates to franchise lenders a franchise’s ability to offer their franchisees one of the strongest performances in the franchise industry while providing the financing support necessary to be successful in a highly competitive and volatile environment.

A total of 13 risk and performance categories are evaluated for each brand. The resulting score assists banks with the underwriting process for an individual loan.

Since the score is based on a consistently applied methodology and each franchise system is underwritten to this same standard, lender use of FUND^® Scores eliminates underwriting inconsistencies and interpretation issues.
