The question of leasing credit as a substitute or complement of a banking loan has still not been resolved in the financial literature. As a continuation of these arguments, the objective of this article is, on the one hand, to determine the characteristics of firms using leasing credit and on...

La cuestión del leasing como sustituto o complemento de un préstamo bancario todavía no se ha resuelto en la literatura financiera. Como continuación de estos argumentos, el objetivo de este artículo es, por una parte, determinar las características de las empresas que usan el leasing y...

This study attempts to show how a Kohonen map can be used to improve the temporal stability of the accuracy of a financial failure model. Most models lose a significant part of their ability to generalize when data used for estimation and prediction purposes are collected over different time...

This article deals with the usefulness of neuronal networks in the area of corporate finance. Firstly, we highlight the initial applications of neural networks. One can distinguish two main types: layer networks and self organizing maps. As Altman al. (1994) underlined, the use of layer networks...

The paper proposes a methodology called OP-KNN, which builds a one hidden- layer feedforward neural network, using nearest neighbors neurons with extremely small com- putational time. The main strategy is to select the most relevant variables beforehand, then to build the model using KNN...
