Capital, liquidity and reputation are all exposed by weak handling of loan portfolio management. The audit trail behind the practice within financial and banking practice matters as much as the decision itself. They acquire practical criteria for judging when the wider financial and banking practice agenda is working and when it is only appearing to. Most organisations already have a policy on loan portfolio management; far fewer can show it working. Across sectors, teams that rehearse this aspect of financial and banking practice outperform teams that only plan it. The course covers the practice within financial and banking practice at the level of detail needed to act, and stops there. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in loan portfolio management rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. It suits anyone whose decisions touch the wider financial and banking practice agenda, in large organisations and small ones alike. Participants leave with a plan for the financial and banking practice discipline sized to what their organisation can realistically absorb.
