Forecasting Financial Investment Firms’ Insolvencies Empowered with Enhanced Predictive Modeling
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In the realm of financial decision-making, it is crucial to consider multiple factors, among which lies the pivotal concern of a firm’s potential insolvency. Numerous insolvency prediction models utilize machine learning techniques try to solve this critical aspect. This paper aims to assess the financial performance of financial investment firms listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange (ISX) from 2012 to 2022. A Multi-Layer Perceptron predicting model with a parameter optimizer is proposed integrating an additional feature selection process. For this latter process, three methods are proposed and compared: Principal Component Analysis, correlation coefficient, and Particle Swarm Optimization. Through the fusion of financial ratios with machine learning, our model exhibits improved forecast accuracy and timeliness in predicting firms’ insolvency. The highest accuracy model is the integrated MLP + PCA model, at 98.7%. The other models, MLP + PSO and MLP + CC, also exhibit strong performance, with 0.3% and 1.1% less accuracy, respectively, compared to the first model, indicating that the first model serves as a powerful predictive approach.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
