Predicting Corporate Failure in the UK: A Multidimensional Scaling Approach

E. Neophytou and C.M. Molinero

Working Papers from University of Southampton - Department of Accounting and Management Science

Abstract: Scaling techniques are proposed as an alternative tool for the analysis and prediction of corporate failure. This approach has the advantage of reproducing the main features of the data in the form of statistical maps that lend themselves to intuitive interpretation. The maps are further analysed by means of standard multivariate statistical tool.
