Abstract
Financial statements vary between industries. Therefore, economic intuition suggests that industry effects should be an important component in bankruptcy prediction; however, in previous academic literature on default prediction, not much attention has been paid to these effects. In this study a number of questions concerning credit risk modelling of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and industry are answered.
