Abstract

To effectively quantify and control the credit risk of forest farmers under internet crowdfunding mode, the combined weighting of norm grey correlation, the improved analytic hierarchy process and empirical mode decomposition method are proposed to measure the credit risk, and the interval rough number DEMATEL method is used to analyze the credit risk factors of forest farmers. Through the calculation of comprehensive influence degree, it is concluded that the degree of investor information asymmetry, the intensity of supervision, the degree of innovation and cooperation between funders and investors are the main credit risk factors of forest farmers under internet crowdfunding mode, and a credit risk control mechanism is constructed according to the main credit risk factors to effectively improve the risk management and control level of forest farmers.
