Corporate Credit Workshop , Hands-On Training for New Credit Analysts.
Course Description
The Corporate Credit Workshop: Hands-On Training for New Analysts is a case-driven program designed to teach participants how real credit analysts assess corporate borrowers, identify risks, and make lending decisions. Unlike theoretical finance courses, this workshop provides a practical framework built around three core pillars of credit analysis: business model quality, capital structure sustainability, and debt service capacity. Participants learn how to apply this framework to real companies and how to form forward-looking credit opinions rather than relying solely on historical financial performance.
Through real-world case studies, learners discover how companies that appear financially sound can deteriorate rapidly due to various reasons like technological disruption, excessive leverage or structural risks. The course emphasizes judgment, context, and critical thinking, equipping analysts to spot red flags early.
By the end of the course, attendees gain the analytical confidence and intuitive understanding needed to assess real-world credit risk, ask the right questions, and think like professional lenders and investors.
Key message:
Credit decisions aren’t only about numbers — judgment and qualitative insights are crucial.
Do not miss the big picture while also keeping in mind that the devil is in the detail.
Having a forward-looking view is crucial.
Enjoy the course!
Best wishes,
