## Abstract

A system and method for investigating trust scores. A trust score is calculated based on peer transfers, a graphical user interface displays actuatable elements associated with a first peer transfer from the peer transfers, in response to receiving an indication the first actuatable element has been actuated, recalculating the trust score without the first peer transfer.

## Claims

calculating a trust score for the entity based at least in part on the loan amount and the historical loan information;
determining one or more parameters associated with the loan request based on the calculating of the trust score;
causing a graphical user interface (GUI) to be displayed on a second device, the GUI displaying the determined one or more parameters and an actuatable element associated with the loan request;
receiving an indication that the actuatable element has been actuated through the GUI; and
in response to receiving the indication that the actuatable element has been actuated through the GUI, recalculating the trust score.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the operations further comprise:
subsequent to receiving the indication that the actuatable element has been actuated through the GUI,
removing at least one loan of the plurality of loans from consideration in calculating the trust score.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The system of claim 2, wherein the recalculating the trust score further comprises:
updating the trust score using the plurality of loans with the removed at least one loan; and
updating the one or more parameters associated with the loan request based on the updated trust score; and
causing the GUI to display updated information associated with the loan request, the updated information including the updated trust score and the updated one or more parameters.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the determining the one or more parameters associated with the loan request further comprises:
determining other entities with trust scores similar to the trust score for the entity;
accessing the one or more databases to retrieve historical loan information of the other entities; and
analyzing the historical loan information of the other entities with similar trust scores.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the one or more parameters comprise at least one of an interest rate for the loan amount or a payback timeline for the loan amount.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the historical loan information further includes historical loan repayment information corresponding to the plurality of loans associated with the entity, the historical loan repayment information indicating whether the entity has had a late payment on any of the plurality of loans.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the operations further comprise:
comparing the calculated trust score to a threshold value;
determining, based on the comparing, that the calculated trust score exceeds the threshold value; and
based on the calculated trust score exceeding the threshold value, determining limits associated with the entity including a maximum loan amount for the entity.

### Claim 8

A method, comprising:
receiving a transfer request from a first device of an entity, wherein the transfer request includes a transfer amount;
accessing one or more databases and retrieving historical transfer information associated with the entity, wherein the historical transfer information includes a plurality of transfers associated with the entity;
calculating a trust score for the entity based at least in part on the transfer amount and the historical transfer information;
determining one or more parameters associated with the transfer request based at least on the calculating of the trust score;
causing a graphical user interface (GUI) to be displayed on a second device, the GUI displaying the determined one or more parameters and an actuatable element associated with the transfer request;
receiving an indication that the actuatable element has been actuated through the GUI; and
in response to receiving the indication that the actuatable element has been actuated through the GUI, recalculating the trust score.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The method of claim 8, further comprising:
removing at least one transfer of the plurality of transfers from consideration in calculating the trust score based on a temporal relationship.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The method of claim 9, wherein the recalculating the trust score further comprises:
updating the trust score using the plurality of transfers with the removed at least one transfer; and
updating the one or more parameters associated with the transfer request based on the updated trust score.

### Claim 11 (depends on 8)

The method of claim 8, wherein the determining the one or more parameters associated with the transfer request further comprises:
determining other entities with trust scores similar to the trust score for the entity;
accessing the one or more databases to retrieve historical transfer information of the other entities; and
analyzing the historical transfer information of the other entities with similar trust scores.

### Claim 12 (depends on 8)

The method of claim 8, wherein the one or more parameters comprise at least one of an interest rate for the transfer amount or a payback timeline for the transfer amount.

### Claim 13 (depends on 8)

The method of claim 8, wherein the historical transfer information further includes historical repayment information corresponding to the plurality of transfers associated with the entity, the historical repayment information indicating whether the entity has had a late payment on any of the plurality of transfers.

### Claim 14 (depends on 8)

The method of claim 8, further comprising:
comparing the calculated trust score to a threshold value;
determining, based on the comparing, that the calculated trust score exceeds the threshold value; and
based on the calculated trust score exceeding the threshold value, determining limits associated with the entity including a maximum loan amount for the entity.

### Claim 15

A non-transitory machine readable medium having stored thereon machine readable instructions executable to cause a machine to perform operations comprising:
receiving a loan request from a first device of an entity, wherein the loan request includes a loan amount;
