They analyze the explainability for various stakeholders: loan companies, regulators, loan applicants, and data scientists, incorporating their different requirements with respect to explanations. For loan companies, they generate explanations for every model prediction of creditworthiness. For regulators, they perform a stress test for extreme scenarios. For loan applicants, they generate diverse counterfactuals to guide them with steps toward a favorable classification from the model. Finally, for data scientists, they generate simple rules that accurately explain 70%–72% of the dataset. Their study provides a synthesized ML explanation framework for all stakeholders and is intended to accelerate the adoption of ML techniques in domains that would benefit from explanations of their predictions.","PeriodicalId":21927,"journal":{"name":"Social Science Research Network","volume":"9 1","pages":"9 - 39"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139323696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We show that, even when GVCs themselves are efficient, they have welfare implications because these linkages affect countries’ ability to share risks in incomplete financial markets. This novel interaction between trade and finance arises from a distinct channel of cross-border transmission with GVCs, the marginalcost effect. Productivity shocks, by moving relative prices, impact the marginal cost of production both at home and abroad, and therefore, in equilibrium, their relative supply. When international financial markets are incomplete, these supply-side linkages will affect household wealth in both countries, and, in turn, the degree of international risk sharing. The direction and strength of this effect varies with the trade elasticity and the degree of GVC integration, with non-monotonic effects leading to ‘fragmentation traps’ in which small increases in GVC integration reduce risk sharing, while large increases would improve it. We show that in the quantitatively relevant case, GVCs reduce cross-border misalignments, and so endogenously support international risk sharing.","PeriodicalId":21927,"journal":{"name":"Social Science Research Network","volume":"130 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135262663","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
