This paper investigates how to improve statistical-based credit scoring of SMEs involved in P2P lending. The methodology discussed in the paper is a factor network-based segmentation for credit score modeling. The approach first constructs a network of SMEs where links emerge from comovement of...

We propose a novel systemic risk measurement model based on stochastic processes, correlation networks and conditional probabilities of default.For each country we consider three different economic sectors (sovereigns, corporates, banks) and we model each of them as a linear combination of two...

We propose a statistical measure, based on correlation networks, to evaluate the systemic risk that could arise from the resolution of a failing or likely-to-fail financial institution, under three alternative scenarios: liquidation, private recapitalization, or bail-in. The measure enhances the...

The paper proposes an explainable AI model that can be used in credit risk management and, in particular, in measuring the risks that arise when credit is borrowed employing credit scoring platforms. The model applies similarity networks to Shapley values, so that AI predictions are grouped...

This paper shows how to improve the measurement of credit scoring by means of factor clustering. The improved measurement applies, in particular, to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) involved in P2P lending. The approach explores the concept of familiarity which relies on the notion that the...
