A model is estimated to assess the relation between delinquency and the DTI ratio. The initial and current DTI ratios are assessed as delinquency predictors. The results confirm that the current DTI ratio is effective for predicting delinquency. This evidence supports its use in financial regulation to improve household credit risk assessment and control. 000298154 700__ $$aCuba, Walter 000298154 8564_ $$9d351a889-8bbe-4ead-8829-7bd9ddabe946$$s2375556$$uhttps://repository.graduateinstitute.ch/record/298154/files/HEIDWP05-2020.pdf 000298154 901__ $$uInternational Economics Department$$0319285 000298154 909CO $$ooai:repository.graduateinstitute.ch:298154$$pGLOBAL_SET$$pIHEID:Explore 000298154 981__ $$aoverwrite
