TLDR
Comparisons of models developed by using three different methods in order to identify a model with the highest predictive accuracy of financial distress when it comes to industrial enterprises operating in the specific Slovak environment indicate that all models demonstrated high discrimination accuracy and similar performance.Abstract:
Predicting the risk of financial distress of enterprises is an inseparable part of financial-economic analysis, helping investors and creditors reveal the performance stability of any enterprise. The acceptance of national conditions, proper use of financial predictors and statistical methods enable achieving relevant results and predicting the future development of enterprises as accurately as possible. The aim of the paper is to compare models developed by using three different methods (logistic regression, random forest and neural network models) in order to identify a model with the highest predictive accuracy of financial distress when it comes to industrial enterprises operating in the specific Slovak environment. The results indicate that all models demonstrated high discrimination accuracy and similar performance; neural network models yielded better results measured by all performance characteristics. The outputs of the comparison may contribute to the development of a reputable prediction model for industrial enterprises, which has not been developed yet in the country, which is one of the world’s largest car producers.read more

Female directors, capital structure, and financial distress
C. José García,Begoña Herrero +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined whether the gender diversity of the board affects firms' capital structure (leverage, cost of debt, and debt maturity) and likelihood of bankruptcy and found that having a small and independent board with a high ratio of women directors reduces the likelihood of financial distress.

Deep learning
TL;DR: Deep learning is making major advances in solving problems that have resisted the best attempts of the artificial intelligence community for many years, and will have many more successes in the near future because it requires very little engineering by hand and can easily take advantage of increases in the amount of available computation and data.

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.

Financial ratios and the probabilistic prediction of bankruptcy
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present some empirical results of a study predicting corporate failure as evidenced by the event of bankruptcy, and the methodology is one of maximum likelihood estimation of the so-called conditional logit model, in which the data set used in this study is from the seventies (1970-76).
