Case Context

  • The goal here is to have a better understanding of how consumers spend their money every month.
  • Utilize that information to determine which clients are eligible to be targeted for new credit card sales.
  • As spending is tied to Interchange related income, it is critical to assess a prospect’s spending potential.

  • Firstly, we visualize the data and several indicators to determine their correlations and associations among each other.
  • Classification model was built to predict new data class categories after splitting the data sample.
  • Decision tree algorithm was applied that are capable of learning by analyzing data patterns.

  • The case can be used by credit card companies to develop a predictive model for predicting customer satisfaction with credit card services and inviting prospective customers and offering them lucrative offers.
  • This case also be used by banking sector to devise marketing strategies that can be directed towards customer retention preventing profit loss.
  • The analysis can also assist the industry in evaluating their customer based on their expenditures and monthly saving.
