Underwriting is a tool Moov uses to understand a business’s profile before allowing them to collect funds on our platform. Through underwriting, you can retrieve or update information about the business's transaction volume.

## Retrieve underwriting details

Retrieve underwriting associated with a given Moov account.

To retrieve underwriting details, you'll need to specify the `/accounts/{accountID}/profile.read` scope when generating a token.

#### Parameters

| Name | Type |
| --- | --- |
| `accountID` | string |

Ask

```javascript
moov.accounts.underwriting.get({accountID});
```

## Update underwriting details

Update the account's underwriting by passing new values for one or more of the fields.

To update underwriting details, you'll need to specify the `/accounts/{accountID}/profile.write` scope when generating a token.

#### Parameters

| Name | Type |
| --- | --- |
| `accountID` | string |

};
moov.accounts.underwriting.update({accountID, underwriting});
