Classification and Prediction Modelling for Financial Distress, Tax Debt and Insolvency for ATO Clients

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) has clients who are not able to meet their taxation debts, resulting in revenue shortfalls for both the State and Federal Governments. Through this project, we will develop predictive models and techniques which identify client classes and clusters in the ATO client population and the defining attributes of these collections - especially those which are at high risk of incurring debt and defaulting on paying taxes. In turn, the early identification of clients in financial distress will allow the ATO to give them assistance so that they can reduce their debts and meet their financial obligations.
