description Financial crises can have a negative impact on business operations, and in serious cases, they directly affect the survival and growth of a company. Therefore, the study of financial early warning based on financial indicators is particularly important. However, there are still some shortcomings in the current research on financial early warning, for example, it still evaluates the scoring method or only uses a single model to participate in the construction of financial early warning algorithm. In view of the above problems, this study will mainly use the random forest method combined with the decision tree algorithm to study the financial early warning problem of listed companies in China. Firstly, this paper uses the literature review method to analyse the relevant literature and generate the financial indicator system for this study. Subsequently, by collecting the financial data of A-share listed companies in China from 2013 to 2018 as the research object, the importance ranking of financial indicators was generated by using random forest modelling after data preprocessing. On this basis, CART decision tree modelling was applied to generate financial indicator early warning determination rules and analyse them. The results of the study show the importance ranking of financial indicators and the six financial warning rules based on the CART decision tree. Through this research, it is expected to achieve the objective of providing early warning for the risk of financial crisis and to provide constructive financial warning solutions for relevant stakeholders.
