• Prepare Financial Models and Analysis: Develop financial models and evaluate different financial and market scenarios to understand their potential impact on loan repayment and collateral support.

• Identify and Communicate Potential Risks: Review financial information for inconsistencies, changing trends, and early warning signs. Document findings and escalate concerns to the appropriate credit professionals.

• Prepare Credit Documentation: Develop financial analyses, credit memoranda, risk-rating recommendations, and supporting documentation used in credit reviews and portfolio monitoring.

• Collaborate Across Credit Functions: Work with Special Assets, Credit Loss, and Client Reporting colleagues to provide accurate financial analysis that supports recovery planning, credit loss assessments, and client reporting.
