Credit Quality & Red Flags for Deteriorating Loans

July 29 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm EDT
Credit unions often recognize loan problems too late because early warning signs are subtle, fragmented, or misunderstood, leading to reactive rather than proactive credit risk management. Join us for an informative presentation as we provide a practical overview of current credit quality and how to identify early warning signs of deterioration within a loan portfolio. Weโll explore the indicators that signal emerging borrower distress, structural weaknesses, or declining repayment capacity. In addition, weโll discuss how to recognize behavioral, financial, and collateralโrelated red flags, interpret financial trends that may forecast future problems, and apply sound credit risk principles to help strengthen portfolio oversight.
