Consumer Lending for Commercial Lenders
Community bankers are often generalists when it comes to their lending practice and portfolio, and they frequently deal with all types of loans. This new program has been specially developed for commercial lenders who need training in consumer lending principles and practices.
This new program was suggested by a frequent webinar participant who desires to gain an understanding of consumer lending from the perspective of a commercial banker. Community bankers are often generalists when it comes to their lending practice and portfolio, and they frequently deal with all types of loans and customer needs.
When a commercial lender turns his attention to the financial needs of the individuals who own or manage the affairs of commercial borrowers, the credit question changes focus, decision parameters and credit tools. The late Stanley Marcus of Nieman Marcus said it well, “Consumers are statistics, customers are principles.”
Consumer and commercial lending have similarities, but they are also significantly different in many principles and practices. Experienced lenders will receive a strong refresher while new or less experienced bankers will build the skills and perspective needed to deal with a customer’s consumer credit needs. The presentation is low on theory and high on practical and "real world" application.
Highlights
- How and why consumer lending is a highly desirable component of your bank's loan portfolio;
- Understanding consumer lending risks and rewards;
