Advanced Credit and Financial Analysis
3 Day Workshop
(This workshop is not being offered at this time)
Introduction
Without understanding the differences in creditor quality, analysts and lenders alike, may have difficulty in creating loan portfolios that conform to their risk preferences. To distinguish between creditors and credit quality and to price credits correctly, each potential credit needs to be analyzed rigorously, using both quantitative and qualitative analysis.
This intensive and interactive course includes the latest practical and theoretical developments in credit risk analysis, and offers practical case studies and group activities to reinforce both the various concepts and the relationship among these concepts.
Objectives
- Gain an understanding in evaluating a company’s performance
- Understand a company’s capital structure using both qualitative and quantitative frameworks and tools therein
- Identify key areas of a credit’s deteriorating performance
- Learn how rating and other 3rd party indicators are used
- Gain insight into global transaction structuring
- Forecast future corporate financial and credit performance
