StarMine SmartRatios Credit Risk Model

An overview of StarMine SmartRatios Credit Risk Model

The SmartRatios Credit Risk Model (SRCR) is an intuitive and robust default prediction model that provides a view of a firm’s credit condition and financial health by analyzing a wide array of accounting ratios that are predictive of credit risk.

SRCR model provides daily updated estimates of the probability of default or bankruptcy within 1 year for 35,000 companies globally, including financials. The default probabilities are also mapped to traditional letter ratings and ranked to produce 1-100 percentile scores. The model groups various accounting ratios, along with industry-specific metrics, into 5 components: Profitability; Liquidity; Leverage; Coverage; and Growth, which are combined in a logistic regression framework.
