Multiple Linear Regression - Bank Valuation
Summer 2025
Built a multiple linear regression model for Chinese A-share banks following Damodaran's valuation framework. Selected 20 large banks, used PB as the dependent variable, and tested factors like ROE, dividend, NPL ratio, beta, PE, and Tier-1 capital ratio in Python. After data cleaning and correlation analysis, identified optimal 2-3 factor combinations with strong adjusted R² values. Created a tool to input bank metrics and flag potential mispricing by comparing fair PB estimates to market values.
