TLDR
This is the first study that develops an online non-parametric credit scoring system, which is able to reselect effective features automatically for continued credit evaluation and weigh them out by their level of contribution with a good diagnostic ability.Abstract:
This research is aimed at the case of credit scoring in risk management and presents a novel machine learning method to be used for the default prediction of high-risk branches or customers. This study uses the Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric statistic to form a conservative credit-scoring model and to study the impact on modeling performance on the benefit of the credit provider. The findings show that the new credit scoring methodology represents a reasonable coefficient of determination and a very low false-negative rate. It is computationally less expensive with high accuracy with around 18% improvement in Recall/Sensitivity. Because of the recent perspective of continued credit/behavior scoring, our study suggests using this credit score for non-traditional data sources for online loan providers to allow them to study and reveal changes in client behavior over time and choose the reliable unbanked customers, based on their application data. This is the first study that develops an online non-parametric credit scoring system, which is able to reselect effective features automatically for continued credit evaluation and weigh them out by their level of contribution with a good diagnostic ability.read more

Financial ratios, discriminant analysis and the prediction of corporate bankruptcy
TL;DR: In this paper, a set of financial and economic ratios are investigated in a bankruptcy prediction context wherein a multiple discriminant statistical methodology is employed, and the data used in the study are limited to manufacturing corporations, where an initial sample of sixty-six firms is utilized to establish a function which best discriminates between companies in two mutually exclusive groups: bankrupt and nonbankrupt firms.

Methodological issues related to the estimation of financial distress prediction models
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined conceptually and empirically two estimation biases which can result when financial distress models are estimated on non-random samples and showed that these biases can result in biased parameter and probability estimates if appropriate estimation techniques are not used.
