Loan Status Prediction in the Banking Sector using Machine Learning

Aim:

         To determine the customer loan approval system using machine learning algorithms.

Abstract:

         Loan approval is a very important process for banking organizations. The systems approved or reject the loan applications. Recovery of loans is a major contributing parameter in the financial statements of a bank. It is very difficult to predict the possibility of payment of loan by the customer. In recent years many researchers worked on loan approval prediction systems. Machine Learning (ML) techniques are very useful in predicting outcomes for large amount of data. In this paper different machine learning algorithms are applied to predict the loan approval of customers. In this paper, various machine learning algorithms that have been used in past are discussed and their accuracy is evaluated. The main focus of this paper is to determine whether the loan given to a particular person or an organization shall be approved or not.

Synopsis:

            Customer loan approval process for a banking organization its main reason to save a time for customer and bank its output is approval or not approval.

Proposed System:

         The proposed model focuses on predicting the credibility of customers for loan repayment by analyzing their details. The input to the model is the customer details collected. On the output from the classifier, decision on whether to approve or reject the customer request can be made. Using different data analytics tools loan prediction and there severity can be forecasted. In this process it is required to train the data using different algorithms and then compare user data with trained data to predict the nature of loan. The training data set is now supplied to machine learning model; on the basis of this data set the model is trained. Every new applicant details filled at the time of application form acts as a test data set. After the operation of testing, model predict whether the new applicant is a fit case for approval of the loan or not based upon the inference it conclude on the basis of the training data sets. By providing real time input. That data passes to the algorithm. In our project, Decision tree gives high accuracy level compared with other algorithms. Finally, we are predicting the result.

Advantage:

            The algorithms proposed for this work is Random Forest, Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine (SVM), (K- NN) K- Nearest Neighbor those algorithms give best testing accuracy.
