Why Credit & Structured Debt Finance training?
The credit crisis has highlighted a number of weaknesses in previous approaches to credit risk assessment and management in financial institutions and is expected to result in a number of major changes, including:
A need for a more holistic approach to credit analysis techniques balancing traditional quantitative analysis with qualitative risk assessment and use of market indicators, combined with “common sense”.
A re – assessment of credit pricing, given the likelihood that banks will be required to hold more capital.
Re- evaluation of how assets held as security are valued, with more emphasis on underlying cash flows rather than liquidation values.
