Commercial Financial Analysis

Day 3 Advance Financial Analysis
Over the past 20 years, several thousand credit analysts & lenders from more than 700 commercial banks across 36 states have attended our flagship the Commercial Financial Analysis series of seminars. Our training is recognized by Chief Credit Officers across the country as providing outstanding commercial lending training.
The training is far more than just credit analysis. Attendees gain valuable insights into underwriting, credit risk analysis, loan structuring, loan documentation, guarantor analysis, portfolio management, loan grading and many other lending areas. Essentially, Commercial Financial Analysis attendees leave the training far better prepared for their role in generating sound & profitable commercial loans.
Commercial Financial Analysis is conducted as an interactive online workshop. We limit attendance and thus provide a small group training environment. Attendees actively participate in the training, ensuring a more engaging and immersive learning experience.
Each day of training revolves around reviewing loan requests that are representative of today's lending environment. We begin by examining a loan request from a Sole Proprietorship, followed by an S Corporation, and conclude with a CRE Partnership. In each case study, attendees are tasked with generating the cash flow of the borrower/guarantor using federal tax returns, business financial information, and personal financial statements. Furthermore, we thoroughly analyze the most probable credit concerns that lenders would encounter when underwriting these loans.
