Details

This system uses unsupervised machine learning to identify unusual patterns in estate filings submitted to the Office of the Superintendent of Bankruptcy. It helps government analysts prioritize files for manual review as part of risk-based oversight of the insolvency system. The system does not make automated decisions — a human analyst reviews every file it flags. It affects individuals and businesses who have filed for insolvency in Canada.
