Abstract

Economic crises that emerge from systemic risks suggest that credit risk management in banks is paramount not only for the survival of companies themselves but also for a resilient worldwide economy. Although regulators establish strictly standards for financial institutions, i.e., capital requirements and management best practices, unpredictability of market behavior and complexity of financial products may have strong impact on corporate performance, jeopardizing institutions, and even economies. In this chapter, we will explore decision models to manage credit risks, focusing on probabilistic and statistical methods that are coupled with machine learning techniques. In particular, we discuss and compare two ensemble methods, bagging and boosting, in studies of application scoring.
