Abstract

A new methodology of making a decision on an optimal investment in several projects is proposed. The methodology is based on experts’ evaluations and consists of three stages. In the first stage, Kaufmann’s expertons method is used to reduce a possibly large number of applicants for credit. Using the combined expert data, the credit risk level is determined for each project. Only the projects with low risks are selected.
