The Egyptian Credit Bureau was inaugurated with a total of twenty five (25) Banks and The Social Fund for development as shareholders under the commercial name of "Estelam"​ . The Commercial name was changed to "I-Score"​ in 2007 and the Board of the Central Bank of Egypt awarded its approval for commercial business in 22 January 2008. I-Score maintains a database of credit information for credit consumers and SMEs. Authorized users (I-Score members) are entitled to access I-Score's database to carry out creditworthiness checks on consumers and SMEs. I-Score now holds almost 100% of credit data on credit consumers (individuals and SMEs) from commercial banks, thus providing a clear indicator to the credit community and therefore honouring its promise of "Delivering Trust"​ to the Egyptian financial community. The purpose of the company is to provide credit information services and credit information products.
