Modelling Net Loan Loss with Bayesian and Frequentist Regression Analysis

Statistical Finance 2021-04-30 v1

Abstract

We create two distinct nonlinear regression models relating net loan loss (as an outcome) to several other financial and sociological quantities. We consider these data for the time interval between April 1st 2011 and April 1st 2020. We also include temporal quantities (month and year) in our model to improve accuracy. One model follows the frequentist paradigm for nonlinear regression, while the other follows the Bayesian paradigm. By using the two methods, we obtain a rounded understanding of the relationship between net loan losses and our given financial, sociological, and temporal variables, improving our ability to make financial predictions regarding the profitability of loan allocation.
