A comprehensive multi-dimensional analysis of a banking dataset covering loan portfolios, credit-debit transaction flows, branch performance, risk exposure, and fraud indicators.
This project analyzes banking operations across 66,000+ loan accounts and millions of transactions to uncover risk patterns, customer behavior, and operational inefficiencies. The analysis spans SQL querying, Excel modeling, Power BI dashboards, and Tableau visualizations.
- Balanced Transaction Flows β Credit (βΉ127.60M) and debit (βΉ127.29M) show near-perfect equilibrium (ratio: 1.00), indicating financial stability
- Loan Portfolio β Total loan value of $751M across 66K loans; collections at $809M with a low default rate of ~1.56%
- Age Group 26β35 dominates β 50%+ of borrowers; 36-month maturity loans preferred by 95.7% of customers
- Top Performing Cities β Mathura (βΉ31M), Sangrur (βΉ25M), Agra (βΉ21M)
- Geographic Concentration β Heavy exposure in Uttar Pradesh β diversification risk identified
- Verification vs Default β Unverified accounts (16,548) drive the majority of defaults; KYC gaps are a critical risk driver
- High-Risk Transactions β ~20% of flagged activity identified; seasonal dips may mask fraud patterns
