  Abstract

In this study we applied the CART-type Decision Tree (DT-CART) method derived from artificial intelligence technique to the prediction of the solvency of bank customers, for this we used historical data of bank customers. However we have adopted the process of Data Mining techniques, for this purpose we started with a data preprocessing in which we clean the data and we deleted all rows with outliers or missing values as well as rows with empty columns, then we fixed the variable to be explained (dependent or Target) and we also thought to eliminate all explanatory (independent) variables that are not significant using univariate analysis as well as the correlation matrix, then we applied our CART decision tree method using the SPSS tool.

After completing our process of building our model (AD-CART), we started the process of evaluating and testing the performance of our model, by which we found that the accuracy and precision of our model is 71%, so we calculated the error ratios, and we found that the error rate equal to 29%, this allowed us to conclude that our model at a fairly good level in terms of precision, predictability and very precisely in predicting the solvency of our banking customers.
