The applicatin and analysis was performed on financial information for supposed business case loan, as well as a simulated banking transaction database used to develop a credit scoring model. The reults obtained form a Structural Model and Reduced Form Model showed significant differences in credit risk measures with respect to requirements established by applicable law for regulated financial entities in Bolivia. The study revealed that the application of advanced models for measuring credit risk requires adequate estimates of business volatility and credit scoring models that allow deeply analyse of a credit transaction.
