About the course
Lending is the principal business activity for most credit providers – the business of providing credit. The credit portfolio is therefore typically the largest asset and the predominant source of revenue for a credit provider. It is the institution’s lifeblood, and the success of the institution depends on how well that portfolio is managed. This programme aims to give you an overview of loan portfolio management in terms of determining which portfolios are at risk and taking action to minimise that risk to keep the business profitable.
