Workshop Overview
Banks that effectively manage their non-performing
transactions understand the need for a disciplined
structured approach to this key issue. This programme

transactions in African banks, including development
loans, investment in trusts and other equities and joint
equity/debt facilities.
The workshop will cover fundamental issues and solutions
in:
-
Why borrowers and investees fail: The well-documented
causes of failure, and how they differ from warning signals
of impending failure
-
Financial and non-financial warning signals of impending
failure
-
What a bank should do when a borrower defaults, or
looks like it is about to default
-
The five basic strategies available to a bank, and how to
select the mix of strategies that suits each individual non-performing loan
- Practical measures in implementing the strategy identified for each non-performing loan and default
- Accountability: Ensuring that lessons are learned from non-performing loan losses
