Contest Phases

Ideation Phase

Each participant needs to provide idea with process flow on how to develop a predictive analytics model that will most accurately foresee and predict corporate customer loan default using the publicly available data (e.g. news, blogs, forums, websites, court/arbitration center judgements, social media, stock exchanges, SEBI, rating agencies etc).

Hackathon Phase

Each shortlisted team will be given with 20 names of SBI Corporate Customers (chosen randomly) in the Hackathon Phase and the team will have to give the probability of default over next 6 months of these customers using publicly available data.

Participants whose predictions come closest to the truest i.e. best correlated with real timeframe of 6 months will be awarded.

The analytical models can then be used in the bak for generating Early Warning Signals. Hence, the winners will be declared 6 months after the submission of Hackathon Phase Model/Prototype.
