Newly appointed credit analysts need to get to grips very quickly with the skills and capabilities required to perform (sometimes quickly) a level of financial analysis to assess the credit risk of a business. Reliance on external agencies is simply not sufficient.
This introductory and very practical briefing will walk delegates through the introductory phases and will be a highly practical and interactive session. Some pre webinar work will be expected of the attendees.
Agenda:
The Business Customer Risk Focus Series:
This workshop is one episode from within our Business Customer Risk Focus series. To view the full series click here. The other episodes in the series include:
Workshop Two - 15 October 2020 | 10:00 - 11:30 - Advanced Financial Analysis - Part 1 For credit analysts who are happy with the fundamentals of accounting statements this practical briefing will provide you with new tools to quickly go through a set of accounts and assess the risks including; a framework for analysis, debt rating agencies, linking non financials with financial analysis and typical ratios.
Workshop Three - 26 October 2020 | 10:00 - 11:30 - Advanced Financial Analysis - Part 2 Part two of the advanced financial analysis session will include; debt capacity calculations, EBITDA vs free cash flow, creative accounting, and identifying financial difficulties.
Workshop Four - 4 November 2020 | 10:00 - 11:30 - Understanding Customer Risk Thorough financial analysis has always been critical to understanding the risk of lending to a customer. But this is only half the story. Full understanding of the customer risk is key before any financials get looked at, otherwise numbers will just be numbers. Many investment analysts make the point that if they don't understand the source of competitive advantage of a business there is no point looking at the numbers. This workshop will walk participants through a rigorous framework to assess these so called 'non financial' risks. It will be very interactive with a few plenary discussions.
Pricing:
The series includes four 90 minute workshops over four days. The workshops are standalone so can be attended independently, but our recommendation is for your organisation to send colleagues to all four - the same staff member does not need to attend each workshop meaning the most appropriate colleague can attend each one. The 'Full Series' price is the most cost effective option.
