Our Credit training is divided into two sections - Commercial and Consumer - with both courses covering the following core elements:
- Discuss evolution of the credit and lending landscape as it applies to each client.
- Learn how to identify and analyze possible risks and communicate and inform those potential risks effectively to the appropriate parties.
- Review duties and roles of a high-functioning team.
- Review the policies, guidelines, and procedures that provide the operating framework.
- Present a lending approach that is structured, yet flexible enough to grow with the bank. A key area covered is understanding how the loan will be repaid:
1. Primary source of repayment: Delve into cash flow analysis, projections, represented cash sources, and stated usage.
2. Secondary source of repayment: Identifying, assessing and quantifying liquidity and collateral valuations within the context of loan structuring.
3. Global Cash Flow: Taking a conservative approach to properly qualifying, calculating, and determining the relevance of global cash flow.
