This Study applies the hierarchical time series framework to geographically and sector-wise disaggregated loan data
This study introduces time series from the private debt markets and their hierarchical structures. Collected loan data from the central bank of italy is forecasted using a combination of SOTA ML algorithms and the Hierarchical Time Series framework. The resulting models are coherent probabilistic end-to-end forecasters, significantly improving performance compared to benhcmarks while guaranteeing hierarchical consistency and thus facilitating downstream applications.
