Models for financial distress predictions of banks are increasingly important tools used as early warning signals for the whole banking systems. In this study, a model based on random subspace method is proposed to predict investment/non-investment rating grades of U.S. banks. We show that support vector machines can be effectively used as base learners in the meta-learning model. We argue that both financial and non-financial (sentiment) information are important categories of determinants in financial distress prediction. We show that this is true for both banks and other companies.
