Paper proposes a new measure for systemic credit concentration risk.
Study uses geometric algebra to analyze credit cycles, revealing dangerous feedback loops.
Interbank lending and borrowing occur when financial institutions seek to settle and refinance their mutual positions over time and circumstances. This interactive process involves money creation at the aggregate level. Coordination mismatch on interbank credit may trigger systemic crises. This happened when, since sum…
Unified framework models credit cycles and systemic risk.
Paper develops a credit scoring system for micro-loans, addressing interpretability and data quality challenges.
With negative growth in real production in many countries and debt levels which become an increasing burden on developed societies, the calls for a change in economic policy and even the monetary system become louder and increasingly impatient. We research the consequences of a system of credit and debt, that still all…
The instability of the financial system as experienced in recent years and in previous periods is often linked to credit defaults, i.e., to the failure of obligors to make promised payments. Given the large number of credit contracts, this problem is amenable to be treated with approaches developed in statistical physi…
Proposes a credit scoring system for Aave accounts.
Investment strategy optimized for markets and credit risks.
Paper assesses risks of stablecoins, from lending to business-to-business.
System designs for analyzing and pricing non-performing consumer credit portfolios.
Using particle system methodologies we study the propagation of financial distress in a network of firms facing credit risk. We investigate the phenomenon of a credit crisis and quantify the losses that a bank may suffer in a large credit portfolio. Applying a large deviation principle we compute the limiting distribut…
Expert system predicts credit card charge-offs using macroeconomic indicators.
Modeling financial institution dependence structures for systemic risk.
The importance of adequately modeling credit risk has once again been highlighted in the recent financial crisis. Defaults tend to cluster around times of economic stress due to poor macro-economic conditions, {\em but also} by directly triggering each other through contagion. Although credit default swaps have radical…
Private credit markets have expanded significantly, offering unique lending technology to private equity firms.
AutoML enhances credit decisions with XAI for better transparency.
Study dynamic hedging of credit risk using a new model.
Paper proposes a framework for precise daily default risk prediction of Chinese credit bonds.
MRC improves credit assignment in multi-agent LLM systems, achieving high returns and transparency.
This paper develops the Jungle model in a credit portfolio framework. The Jungle model is able to model credit contagion, produce doubly-peaked probability distributions for the total default loss and endogenously generate quasi phase transitions, potentially leading to systemic credit events which happen unexpectedly …
The study develops a machine learning system for credit scoring and default prediction.
We consider a structural credit model for a large portfolio of credit risky assets where the correlation is due to a market factor. By considering the large portfolio limit of this system we show the existence of a density process for the asset values. This density evolves according to a stochastic partial differential…
A scoring method for driving safety using trajectory data.
This work explores the characteristics of financial contagion in networks whose links distributions approaches a power law, using a model that defines banks balance sheets from information of network connectivity. By varying the parameters for the creation of the network, several interbank networks are built, in which …
The interconnectedness of financial institutions affects instability and credit crises. To quantify systemic risk we introduce here the PD model, a dynamic model that combines credit risk techniques with a contagion mechanism on the network of exposures among banks. A potential loss distribution is obtained through a m…
The stability of the financial system is associated with systemic risk factors such as the concurrent default of numerous small obligors. Hence it is of utmost importance to study the mutual dependence of losses for different creditors in the case of large, overlapping credit portfolios. We analytically calculate the m…
The paper introduces a health-informed policy gradient method for multi-agent reinforcement learning.
This paper addresses credit valuation adjustment with a new closeout convention.
Over-the-counter derivatives have contributed significantly to the effectiveness and efficiency of the international financial system but also entail significant counterparty credit risk. Collateralization is one of the most important and widespread credit risk mitigation techniques used in derivatives transactions. Ho…
Optimal credit and consumption strategies in a switching market with default contagion.
Credit networks represent a way of modeling trust between entities in a network. Nodes in the network print their own currency and trust each other for a certain amount of each other's currency. This allows the network to serve as a decentralized payment infrastructure---arbitrary payments can be routed through the net…
This paper reviews LLMs for credit risk assessment, creating a taxonomy.
DeRisk improves credit risk prediction using deep learning.
Paper proposes an intelligent credit limit management system using causal inference.
Study reveals how network topology affects credit risk distribution among firms.
We set up a structural model to study credit risk for a portfolio containing several or many credit contracts. The model is based on a jump--diffusion process for the risk factors, i.e. for the company assets. We also include correlations between the companies. We discuss that models of this type have much in common wi…
The proposed model is aimed to reveal important patterns in the behavior of a simplified financial system. The patterns could be detected as regular cycles consisting of debt bubbles and crises. Financial cycles have a well defined structure and form periodic sequences along the axis of credit expansion while retaining…
Inspired by the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers and its consequences on the global financial system, we develop a simple model in which the Lehman default event is quantified as having an almost immediate effect in worsening the credit worthiness of all financial institutions in the economic network. In our stylized desc…
Bayesian Neural Networks improve credit card default prediction and provide feature importance.
Measures systemic risk in interconnected financial firms.
Study particle system with drift dependent on boundary absorption rate.
We introduce a dynamic credit portfolio framework where optimal investment strategies are robust against misspecifications of the reference credit model. The risk-averse investor models his fear of credit risk misspecification by considering a set of plausible alternatives whose expected log likelihood ratios are penal…
We build a statistical ensemble representation of two economic models describing respectively, in simplified terms, a payment system and a credit market. To this purpose we adopt the Boltzmann-Gibbs distribution where the role of the Hamiltonian is taken by the total money supply (i.e. including money created from debt…
Study finds key subgraphs in Chinese guarantee networks.
Paper introduces Cycles Protocol to integrate trade credit into market clearing.
We study insolvency cascades in an interbank system when banks are allowed to insure their loans with credit default swaps (CDS) sold by other banks. We show that, by properly shifting financial exposures from one institution to another, a CDS market can be designed to rewire the network of interbank exposures in a way…
