Abstract

This study leverages an imbalanced dataset provided by a home equity company to assess unbanked population’s repayment ability. The target variable is whether the client has repayment difficulties, and independent variables include demographic information and credit history. Logistic regression model and other machine learning models are constructed for comparison. It is found that the neural network model has the best overall performance. Also, clients who are reachable by phone, or have been employed for a longer period in the past are less likely to have repayment difficulties. On the other hand, older clients or whose permanent address does not match their contact address or highest education attended is secondary education would have a higher probability of having repayment difficulties.
