Review the computation methodology, compute, and examine historical and projected financial performance ratios in reaching a tentative conclusion about a borrower’s ability to meet the first and second necessary conditions for business success; |
 |
Review the computation methodology, compute, and examine historical and projected Uniform Credit Analysis (UCA) cash flow statements to verify whether a borrower will meet the first and second necessary conditions for business success, if actual performance matches projected performance; |
 |
Identify the competitive forces at work in a specific industry and assess the likely impact on specific Business Drivers and the ripple effect on a company’s future operating and cash flow performance; |
 |
Identify the management essentials in place and working effectively and the likely impact of their presence or omission on the company’s ability to achieve its financial projections; |
 |
Review the computational methodology, compute, and examine a guarantor’s personal cash flow statement, as well as identify the guarantor’s dependency on business cash sources to support the guarantor’s lifestyle and personal debt obligations; |
 |
Examine information in the personal cash flow statement as well as information in the guarantor’s personal financial statements to determine the financial value of the guarantee and likely ready cash available from the guarantor in a business cash flow crisis; |
 |
Identify the proper loan facilities to match the borrowing causes and determine the appropriate loan structure and repayment terms to accommodate risk and match company cash flow; and |
 |
Identify appropriate loan covenants to address relevant risks to the sources of repayment and, using all available hard and soft data, including non-financial red flags, determine the conditions under which the loan requests would be recommended for approval. |

 |
Understand projected borrowing causes and projected sources of cash to meet financing requirements and assess shifts in risk profiles depending on a borrower’s prospects for achieving projections; |
