Abstract:Profiles of prospect groups are developed in terms of their likelihood of fulfilling financial obligation to direct mail offers. An extensive database of individuals responding to a variety of direct mail offers is analyzed. The variables that best differentiate the likelihood of defaulting or not defaulting on their financial commitments are identified. Two specific data-analytic models are presented. The first tests hypotheses pertaining to a limited set of demographic and credit-related variables. The second begins with a set of 271 variables and identifies the 11 that best predict default likelihood.
