Curriculum

The market and the regulatory community pay close attention to a financial organization’s credit culture because a strong credit culture is critical to the success of credit risk management.

Successful credit risk management relies on a strong credit culture to support and execute strategies and policies. 14 credit discipline tools help management to implement, maintain, and ensure that credit risk and the credit culture stay on track.  These tools offer an expedient way to test the quality of credit risk management but also serve as techniques for remediating and improving credit culture and credit risk management.
