Abstract:
The current process of credit rating for a loan approval in Denmark is manual, cumbersome and non-optimal. We would like to propose a process allowing for a quick credit decision based on the available personal data. Our process has two steps: First using a non-linear dimensional reduction algorithm on the original data and then running a classification algorithm on the results of the first step. We improve existing results compared to the standard benchmarks.
