We propose a market-based, early warning measure of credit risk able to enhance the observed CDS spreads with a risk premium that derives from contagion by means of a correlation network model. We then combine the proposed measure with balance-sheet information and liabilities composition, in...

A key point in the application of data science models is the evaluation of their accuracy. Statistics and machine learning have provided, over the years, a number of summary measures aimed at measuring the accuracy of a model in terms of its predictions, such as the Area under the ROC curve and...

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...
