There are two pools of loan applicants identified by the variable $p\\in\\{0,1\\}$ that we’ll describe as the blue and yellow populations.

For each of these four groups we have a distribution of credit ratings (figure 1). In an ideal world, the two distributions for the yellow population would be exactly the same as those for the blue population. However, as figure 1 shows, this is clearly not the case here."
