Looking for credit score analyst for new market - where to look?
We're interested in seting up a credit card programme in the EU where
credit management is built on behavioral statistics rather than
personal opinion or plain credit score.
This is an ununsual approach in Europe outside the UK.
Are there any good web sites or forums for recruiting statistical
analysts?
I know a number of folks (myself included) who may be able to provide
consulting sevices in his area. I don't know of any websites (all
personal connects over the years)
Over the years there have been presentations on this kind of application
at meetings of the Classification Society of North America, and IIRC, at
the International Federation of Classification Society.

That would certainly be an appropriate forum.
SPSS and or Clementine could well be appropriate tools.
Is there a reason the consultant(s) need to be in the EU?
The most frequent kind of methodological error I have seen is to think
only in terms of a dichotomy rather than a polychotomy e.g., there is
more than one way to be non-compliant on income tax reporting, there is
more than one way to fail to complete an enlisted term in the military
(die, go to prison, just don't hack it emotionally, just don't hack it
cognitively, go to officer candidate school, etc.). The predictors of
diferent forms of non-comliance, or non-completion of term may be different.
