Executive Summary
Flagstar FSB has an opportunity to expand loan servicing contribution by $1M+
annually through predictive modeling
Moons of Jupyter used data modeling to analyze nearly 4M mortgages over the past
20 years and:
◦ Highlight costliness of servicing loans at-risk of default
◦ Fine-tune data inputs to train model
◦ Identify significant key attributes as drivers of default rates
Predictive
Modeling
• Fannie Mae single- • Financial forecast of
family loan data since • Train key attributes improved bps spread
2000 • Boosted trees model • Contribution Margin
• LTV, DTI, Credit Score, • Improved accuracy of expansion
etc default rates
Attribute Economic
Analysis Impact
Our model uses boosted regression trees
Benefits and overview of boosted trees model:
◦ 1. Clusters borrower profiles using attributes such as DTI, LTV, first time
buyer, and predicts based on profiles. E.g. Borrowers with DTI > 35%, LTV
>85%, and FTB have an X% chance of default
◦ 2. Compares its predictions to actual results, and then iterates based on
the bias in the results, making for increasingly accurate predictions
◦ 3. Creates easy to read outputs – list of feature importance and % chance
of default risk
