Risk Monitoring

After the business loan is closed, periodic analysis is an essential step to ensure ongoing credit quality. Throughout the entire term of the loan, your credit union needs to be able to answer the following questions:

  • Is cash flow from the business still adequate to cover the debt?
  • Does the loan file contain current financial statements, tax returns and other necessary documents?
  • Does the business have adequate insurance coverage, and is it current?
  • Are the UCC filings and other collateral requirements in place and up to date?
  • Is the credit union’s review, analysis and conclusion properly documented in the file?

CU Business Group offers the following services to assist credit unions in monitoring business loans after they have been funded:
