Abstract

Purpose: Traditional credit scoring models rely on static, historical financial data, which limits their effectiveness for individuals with thin credit files and their responsiveness to evolving borrower behavior, particularly in the context of emerging financing models like Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL). This research aims to develop a novel, deep learning-based framework for highly accurate, real-time credit risk assessment on deep processing loan platforms.

Design/Methodology/Approach: A quantitative, computational approach is employed. The proposed framework, Credit Scoring and Risk Analysis utilizing Deep Processing Loan Platform (CSRA-DPLP-BSCNN), integrates advanced data preprocessing using a Regularized Bias-Aware Ensemble Kalman Filter (RBEKF) to manage multi-source data, handle missing values, and reduce noise in real-time BNPL datasets. The core predictive element is a Binarized Simplicial Convolutional Neural Network (BSCNN), selected for its superior capability to identify complex, non-linear financial and behavioral patterns.

Findings: The CSRA-DPLP-BSCNN model demonstrates exceptional performance suitable for real-time deployment. Empirical results indicate an accuracy of 98%, a precision of 97%, a recall of 96%, and an F1-score of 98%. Critically, the computational time is exceptionally low, measured at 1.159 seconds, significantly outperforming benchmark models. The integrated RBEKF preprocessing is found to substantially enhance the reliability of the input data stream.

Originality/Value: This research delivers a robust, high-performance deep learning architecture that simultaneously addresses the need for real-time decision-making, high predictive accuracy, and efficient handling of alternative data, thereby promoting greater financial inclusion and enhancing systemic risk mitigation in modern lending ecosystems.
