With changes in the current economic climate, our program is focused on what lenders should do if they have a troubled loan situation, recognizing that the "workout starts on your desk". It is designed to explain how lenders can avoid common pitfalls and how to spot the signs of a potentially troubled credit. We also focus on loan recovery and lastly, common negotiating points in loan documents.
