Abstract: According to modern capital structure theory and option theory,designating that the price of assets is less than debt received by listed firms as the indicator of financial distress(FD),the paper designs the Expected Default Frequency(EDF)model using publicly available financial data and the information index of the capital market,i.e.price of the stock.The model can dynamically predict FD in listed firms and overcome the weakness of statistics models.

Key words: expected default frequency, listed firms, financial distress, prediction
