Course Overview

This interactive course is designed for bank practitioners from front office, back office and central units who are confronted with credit risk. By attending this practical and informative course, you will be able to understand credit risk in all its facets, including quantitative and qualitative risk analysis. When assessing the credit risk of an SME you can often be overwhelmed with information. The course helps you to structure the information in a structured and consistent way, with appropriate focus on crucial risk drivers. This in turn helps you to develop an integrated strategy for the identification, analysis and mitigation of credit risks, both on client as well as portfolio level. In addition, the course develops an understanding for the organizational aspects of a bank’s credit business with regard to structures and processes. This enables financial institutions not only to manage credit risk, but to do it in an efficient cost saving manner. The course participants will additionally discuss the latest international developments in credit risk management and supervision. Through interesting case studies and exercises, delegates develop a new approach to complex analytical tasks.
