Comparison of Corporate Default Probability Modeling Methods

In banks’ internal-rating based approach to measure credit risk, modelers mainly use logistic regression and discriminant analysis for PD modeling。 We compare the required assumptions and structural differences between the two statistical methodologies。 We suggest transformations when desired conditions are not satisfied。 Further discussions are made on other modeling methods, including optimizing on Information Value (i。e。 relative entropy) as an objective function, CART, and neural network。 To demonstrate and validate our results, we select two sets of corporate data: one from a local bank’s small and mid-sized companies loans, and the other from manufacture sector of public companies。 Finally we briefly discuss the impact of different modeling approaches on advanced risk management methods using PD as a building block。
