Description
Underwriting Level 2 explores three case studies individually. An emphasis is placed on identifying strengths and weaknesses of each, along with determining, through class participation, any structural changes that could have been addressed in underwriting to better manage the risks within each case. Participants will also explore ways each credit may have been managed ineffectively and discuss what protocols could have been put in place to contain any potential exposure. Through post-mortem review of these three case studies, participants can strengthen their approach to borrower and collateral pitfalls and more quickly identify patterns found in problem accounts to more proactively manage their risk.We recommended that participants first complete Underwriting Level 1 before moving on to this curriculum.

Mignon Winston, VP Underwriting, Great Rock Capital Underwriting is far more than gathering data and calculating ratios.

• A thorough and systematic overview of the key aspects of ABL underwriting;
