Beta distributed credit score - Estimation of its J-divergence
Original language description
It is known, that Beta distribution could provide a reasonable approximation of distribution of a credit scores, which are the outcome of credit scoring models, i.e. models which are used to determine the probability of default (i.e. when the client fails to meet his or her credit obligations). Credit scoring models are used in practice in the majority of decisions related to the granting of credits, and are thus inherently part of the majority of processes (approval, enforcement, commercial, etc.) in the financial sector. Besides Gini coefficient or K-S statistic, J-divergence (also called Information value) is widely used to assess discriminatory power of credit scoring models. However, empirical estimator using deciles of scores, which is the commonway how to compute the J-divergence, may lead to strongly biased results.
