Corporate Financial Distress Prediction in China – A Robustness Testing of ZCHINA-Score Model
Prior to 1990s, the application of financial distress prediction for companies in China is rather limited. Later in post 1990s, the popularity of Z-Score Model soared as a movement was initiated among Chinese researchers to adapt and to apply Altman Z-score model towards local Chinese companies. Poo...
