A conservative approach for online credit scoring

Using DEA for Classification in Credit Scoring

Credit scoring is a kind of binary classification problem that contains important information for manager to make a decision in particularly in banking authorities. Obtained scores provide a practical credit decision for a loan officer to classify clients to reject or accept for payment loan. For this sake, in this paper a data envelopment analysis- discriminant analysis (DEA-DA) approach is us...

A Practical Approach to Credit Scoring

This paper proposes a DEA-based approach to credit scoring. Compared with conventional models such as multiple discriminant analysis, logistic regression analysis, and neural networks for business failure prediction, which require extra a priori information, this new approach solely requires ex-post information to calculate credit scores. For the empirical evidence, this methodology was applied...

A Statistical Model for Credit Scoring

We derive a model for consumer loan default and credit card expenditure. The default model is based on statistical models for discrete choice, in contrast to the usual procedure of linear discriminant analysis. The model is then extended to incorporate the default probability in a model of expected profit. The technique is applied to a large sample of applications and expenditure from a major c...
