In credit default prediction models, the need to deal with time-varying covariates often arises. For instance, in the context of corporate default prediction a typical approach is to estimate a hazard model by regressing the hazard rate on time-varying covariates like balance sheet or stock...

Some assumptions with respect to the number [N(t)]t>0 and the amount [Xi]i=1 of damages are introduced in the paper. It will be assumed that the average of the number of damages is a Poisson process, which leads to a compound Poisson process [S(t)]t>0 for the total damages.

This paper is intended as a guide to building insurance risk (loss) models. A typical model for insurance risk, the so-called collective risk model, treats the aggregate loss as having a compound distribution with two main components: one characterizing the arrival of claims and another...

A Bázel-2 tőkeegyezmény magyarországi bevezetése új lendületet adott a sokváltozós csőd-előrejelzési módszerek alkalmazásnak és továbbfejlődésének. A cikk a nemzetközi szakirodalomban és pénzintézeti gyakorlatban leggyakrabban alkalmazott négy csőd-előrejelzési...

Forecasting the bankruptcy of companies exposes the missing data problem, which applies chiefly to entities having financial problems, who wish to conceal thereby their bad situation. One of the methods of making up incomplete data is imputation. The aim of the paper is to present different data...

Efficiency is considered a key factor when evaluating a bank's performance. Moreover, efficiency enhancement is an explicit policy objective in the Single Market Directive of the European Commission. But efficiency improvements may come at the expense of deteriorating bank profits and excessive...

We present a model of bank passivity and regulatory failure. Banks with low equity positions have more incentives to be passive in liquidating bad loans. We show that they tend to hide distress from regulatory authorities and are ready to offer a higher rate of interest in order to attract...
