Consumer default risk assessment in a banking institution [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2016
Credit scoring is an application of financial risk forecasting to consumer lending. In this study, statistical analysis is applied to credit scoring data from a financial institution to evaluate the default risk of consumer loans. The default risk was found to be influenced by the spread, the age of the consumer, the number of credit cards owned by the

Consumer protection and risk assessment: sensitising substances in consumer products [PDF]

open access: yesAllergo Journal International, 2019
The human immune system is confronted daily with a large, chemically-varied range of potentially sensitising substances. Skin sensitising substances are found, above all, in a plethora of consumer products, e. g. cosmetics, jewellery, earrings, toys, textiles, leather, other everyday commodities and, in some cases, also tattoos.
