Financial distress prediction including bankruptcy prediction has called broad attention since 1960s. Various techniques have been employed in this area, ranging from statistical ones such as multiple discriminate analysis (MDA), Logit, etc. to machine learning ones like neural networks (NN), support vector machine (SVM), etc. Case-based reasoning (CBR), which is one of the key methodologies for problem-solving, has not won enough focus in financial distress prediction since 1996. In this study, outranking relations (OR), including strict difference, weak difference, and indifference, between cases on each feature are introduced to build up a new feature-based similarity measure mechanism in the principle of k-nearest neighbors. It is different from traditional distance-based similarity mechanisms and those based on NN, fuzzy set theory, decision tree (DT), etc. Accuracy of the CBR prediction method based on OR, which is called as OR-CBR, is determined directly by such four types of parameters as difference parameter, indifference parameter, veto parameter, and neighbor parameter. It is described in detail that what the model of OR-CBR is from various aspects such as its developed background, formalization of the specific model, and implementation of corresponding algorithm. With three year’s real-world data from Chinese listed companies, experimental results indicate that OR-CBR outperforms MDA, Logit, NN, SVM, DT, Basic CBR, and Grey CBR in financial distress prediction, under the assessment of leave-one-out cross-validation and the process of Max normalization. It means that OR-CBR may be a preferred model dealing with financial distress prediction in China.
