False.

The U.S. credit industry has changed dramatically since 1917 — e.g., emergence of consumer credit cards (1950s+), widespread installment lending and mortgage markets, creation of credit bureaus and FICO scoring (1950s–1970s), major laws (Truth in Lending Act 1968, Fair Credit Reporting Act 1970, CARD Act 2009), digital banking and online/fintech lending, and securitization of loans — all of which transformed how credit is made, priced, reported and regulated.
