摘要
Rural credit is one of the most critical inputs for farm production across the globe. Despite so many advances in digitalization in emerging and developing economies, still a large part of society like small farm holders, rural youth, and women farmers are untouched by the mainstream of banking transactions. Machine learning-based technology is giving a new hope to these individuals. However, it is the banking or non-banking institutions that decide how they will adopt this advanced technology, to have reduced human biases in loan decision making. Therefore, the scope of this study is to highlight the various AI-ML- based methods for credit scoring and their gaps currently in practice by banking or non-banking institutions. For this study, systematic literature review methods have been applied; existing research articles have been empirically reviewed with an attempt to identify and compare the best fit AI-ML-based model adopted by various financial institutions worldwide. The main purpose of this study is to present the various ML algorithms highlighted by earlier researchers that could be fit for a credit assessment of rural borrowers, particularly those who have no or inadequate loan history. However, it would be interesting to recognize further how the financial institutions could be able to blend the traditional and digital methods successfully without any ethical challenges.
