Predicting Loan Default
Predicting Loan Default Risk With Behavioral Machine Learning Models
The Background
A mid-sized lending company offering SME and personal loans struggled with rising defaults. Traditional underwriting relied heavily on manual judgment and limited data points.
They needed AI to see what humans missed.
The Problem
22–30% of approved loans were risky
Manual underwriting was slow and inconsistent
Behavioral data was not analyzed at all
Loan officers made subjective decisions
The Trigger
An internal audit found that many defaulters had early behavioral red flags — but no system caught them.
Leadership realized they were approving the wrong borrowers.
