“It’s not too late, but it’s later than you think.” Looking beyond the PPP Loan Program, we need to think and act NOW to address expected continued weakness in our commercial loan portfolios in this post-quarantine economy. This webinar series shows you ways to do this with illustrations from real life credit risk management lessons learned from ‘in the trenches’ during previous recessions. You will also receive helpful templates and resources to use at your bank. At 30 minutes each, these webinars are fast-paced and packed full of practical tips and information.
PART 1 - CREDIT MEMOS - September 2, 10:00 am
• What should we require and expect of lenders and ana-lysts: to be sure they have asked the ‘right’ questions, vetted the responses to the extent possible, and factored the borrower’s answers into our recommendations?
• How does a recession change this process? How can our credit memos be improved?
PART 2 - LOAN GRADING - September 2, 2:00 pm
• How can we reduce the vulnerability of our loan grading system (AKA risk ratings, asset quality scores) in a reces-sion….does it still adequately measure risk, given falling collateral values and uncontrollable external factors that impact our loan repayment?
• How do we factor industry weakness, when the bor-rower’s historical financials are still supportive?
PART 3 - GOVERNMENT LOAN GUARANTIES -September 3—3:00 pm
• As the PPP Loan Program was short-term relief, how can we help our commercial borrowers long-term, WHILE protecting the bank’s capital and Loss Given Default?
• What are the ‘rules’ to refinance our own debt into a gov-ernment-guaranteed facility?
