Abstract

Resumen: Este trabajo estima diferentes modelos estadísticos para medir la probabilidad de riesgo de quiebra empresarial e identificar cuál de ellos presenta un mejor desempeno predictivo. Para lograr este objetivo, se emplean los estados financieros de las empresas colombianas para el 2015 con el fin construir indicadores financieros como variables explicativas en los modelos empleados. Las variables más relevantes para medir la probabilidad de quiebra fueron la rentabilidad del patrimonio y el nivel de endeudamiento. Entre los modelos estimados (logístico, logístico heterocedástico, logístico robusto y logístico mixto), el logístico mixto fue el que presentó el mejor desempeno para predecir la fragilidad empresarial. / Abstract : This manuscript estimates different statistical models to measure the probability of risk business failure, and identifies which one has better predicting performance. In order to achieve this objective, the financial statements of Colombian companies in 2015 are used in order to build financial indicators as explanatory variables in the used models. The most relevant variables to measure the probability of business failure were the return on equity and debt ratio. Among the estimated models (logistic, heteroscedastic logistic, robust logistic and mixed logistic), the mixed logistic has the best performance in predicting the corporate fragility.
