A Short Bio
State-of-the-Art Scoring aesthetics
Dr. Zhiyong Li is Professor of Finance at the Southwestern University of Finance and Economics and serves as director of the Department of Credit Management at the School of Finance. He received a doctorate in finance at the University of Edinburgh Business School where his PhD thesis of financial distress prediction passed with no correction. He has been working with scholars at the Credit Research Centre led by Dr. Galina Andreeva and Prof. Jonathan Crook, a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences. He has a background of Mechanics and Mathematics at Beihang University. Dr. Li's interests are focused on the measurement and management of credit risk including credit scoring, credit rating, and risk modelling under Basel II and III. Many of his papers were published in banking/finance, management science/operational research and machine learning/artificial intelligence journals. Though he mainly analyses big data for financial risk management, fundamentally he is an engineer and artist.
CSCR II will be held on 14-16 Oct 2022 in Ningbo China
