Credit Risk Readiness: One Decade After the Recession
Presenter: Linda Keith
What have we learned? What have we fixed? Are we ready for what is next?
From in-depth conversations with chief credit and lending officers, outside bank auditors, examiners, consultants, senior credit administrators and front-line analysts, a snapshot of our credit risk readiness for the next major credit disruption emerged. The follow-up survey, sponsored by Sageworks, included 250 participants from 235 financial institutions across the United States.
Join Linda Keith CPA, credit risk consultant and trainer, as she walks through the actionable insights gleaned from interviews across the country and the 2018 Credit Risk Readiness Study. She’ll draw from her in-the-trenches experience training loan originators focused on business lending, ag lending and personal lending to complex borrowers. Additionally, her experience as a shareholder of the 92nd bank to fail in 2009 provides a unique perspective.
You Will Learn:
- Areas that banks and credit unions have improved from pre- to post-recession as well as areas where financial institutions are back-sliding and what you can do about it.
- Loan portfolio warning signs such as the retreat by some from prudent lending practices and the lack of time and incentive to properly monitor loan requirements.
- Specific methods for passing on the lessons learned from the Recession to your incoming management team and loan originators before the next downturn hits.
- How survey participants’ answers compare to yours through polls during the webinar.
