Reject Inference: Modeling the Applicants You Declined

Why a scorecard trained only on funded loans quietly overstates its own accuracy, and the inference techniques that pull the declined population back into view.

Why credit models trained only on approved-and-funded loans are biased, and the reject-inference techniques (reclassification, parceling, augmentation) that correct for the applicants you never observed.

Building a Credit Scorecard: From Raw Data to a Score

How lenders turn application and bureau data into a single, defensible number — and why the interpretable scorecard still wins in regulated lending.

The end-to-end credit-scoring pipeline: target definition (bad = 90+ dpd), feature engineering, WOE transformation, a logistic-regression scorecard, points scaling (PDO), and validation (KS, Gini, AUC).

Delinquency as a State Machine: DPD Buckets, SMA, and NPA Classification

Model days-past-due transitions, SMA/NPA classification, provisioning triggers, and cure logic as one deterministic engine driven by time and repayment events.

Teaches how to model delinquency as a state machine: days-past-due bucket transitions, SMA/NPA classification rules, provisioning triggers, and cure/roll-forward/roll-back logic driven by repayment events.

Building a Credit Decisioning Engine

How to assemble features from bureau, bank, and alt data, serve a scorecard or model, apply policy cutoffs, and emit adverse-action reason codes with a full audit trail.

Teaches how to build a decisioning engine: feature assembly from bureau/bank/alt data, scorecard vs ML model serving, policy rules and cutoffs, and adverse-action reason-code generation with an audit trail.

Building a Deterministic Amortization Schedule Engine

Computing loan amortization you can reproduce to the cent — annuity math, day-count conventions, the per-installment principal/interest split, and prepayment recomputation.

Teaches how to compute loan amortization deterministically: EMI/annuity vs reducing-balance formulas, day-count conventions, principal/interest split per installment, and prepayment/rescheduling recalculation.

Building a Daily Interest Accrual Engine

How to compute interest that earns every day, tracks the accrued-but-unbilled balance, survives mid-period rate changes, and posts to the ledger with idempotent replay-safe jobs.

Teaches how to build a daily interest accrual engine: accrual basis and compounding, accrued-but-unbilled tracking, rate changes mid-period, and idempotent daily accrual jobs that post to the ledger.
