Warning Signals & Risk Analysis for Bankers
Course Director

Juan Gamecho
Overview
The global economic crisis engulfing the world economy, will have deeply damaging impacts on national economies and corporate clients across the GCC. Regardless of the depth and intensity of the crisis many corporate clients are going to face severe financial problems at a time when debt levels are at historic highs and the credit cycle is already turning.
In meeting its overall objectives, this course will address the specific areas of the identification of early warning signals and its associated risks in order to identify potential problems with corporate clients before they materialise, thereby attempting to avoid default among client companies.
During the programme, we will review financial Early Warning Signals, within the market of the GCC including what can be considered as ‘red flag’ levels for those financial ratios, however the core emphasis of this programme will be on assessing and identifying defects and mistakes being made by client companies before they are translated into symptoms of decline, as expressed by the financial statements. External, strategic and management risk analyses will therefore be major areas of analysis.
In addition to the identification of the Early Warning Signals, the course will focus on remedies for problem loans that the banking team can implement in order to avoid a further deterioration in the client company’s position and to avoid eventual default. This three-day programme will arm the senior corporate credit banker with tools to assist their clients to work through the very difficult times they will face.
