CONSUMER CREDIT DELINQUENCY AND BANKRUPTCY FORECASTING USING ADVANCED ECONOMETRC MODELING

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany
Abstract:
This research paper empirically shows that unemployment is significant in determining both consumer bankruptcy filings and delinquency even after controlling for household demographics. Furthermore, I show that unemployment and the debt/wealth ratio also affect the choice of whether to file for bankruptcy under chapter 7 or chapter 13, after controlling for demographics. The paper then points out some of the implications the empirical results have for policy-makers and banking regulators.
