Predicting Consumer Default: A Deep Learning Approach

Abstract: We develop a model to predict consumer default based on deep learning. We show that the model consistently outperforms standard credit scoring models, even though it uses the same data. Our model is interpretable and is able to provide a score to a larger class of borrowers relative to standard credit scoring models while accurately tracking variations in systemic risk. We argue that these properties can provide valuable insights for the design of policies targeted at reducing consumer default and alleviating … Show more

“…Payment delinquency triggers penalty interest and fees, which we estimate would cost households in our sample $383 to $670 in the 4 years prior to dementia diagnosis alone. Credit for subprime borrowers is more difficult and costly to access; compared with those with prime scores, subprime borrowers pay an estimated $1085 to $1426 more in credit card interest annually due to higher rates . Credit data do not include utility payments, where nonpayment could result in a loss of service.…”

“…Credit for subprime borrowers is more difficult and costly to access; compared with those with prime scores, subprime borrowers pay an estimated $1085 to $1426 more in credit card interest annually due to higher rates. 33 Credit data do not include utility payments, where nonpayment could result in a loss of service. The extended period between financial indicators of ADRD and its diagnosis raises concerns about catastrophic financial events resulting from preclinical or undiagnosed ADRD for older adults.…”

“…10 SHAP values have been applied in other fields outside of oncology, including in other fields of medicine such as anesthesia. [11][12][13][14] However, to our knowledge, the SHAP value framework for interpreting predictions has not been applied previously to clinical oncology. In this article, we describe a novel application of SHAP values to the prediction of overall survival (OS) in patients with prostate cancer, with an emphasis on applying the SHAP framework to visualize nonlinear relationships in a clinically intuitive…”

“…More broadly, our research contributes to the empirical literature on the importance of financial education for economic and credit outcomes (Miller et al, 2015;Hastings et al, 2013;Lusardi and Mitchell, 2014). Our results suggest that activities undertaken by lenders themselves to aid and support, as opposed to screen and supervise, clients may be an important determinant of loan outcomes-a possibility largely overlooked by existing empirical studies on loan repayment (Albanesi and Vamossy, 2019;Barbaglia et al, 2021;Butaru et al, 2016;Ciampi et al, 2021).…”
