Short-Term Loan Structuring for Commercial Borrowers - Getting That Line of Credit Right

Structuring credit facilities for short-term loans and lines of credit is more challenging for financial institutions compared to structuring long-term loans. This course is designed to demonstrate the factors required to consider in establishing the proper loan amount for short-term needs, and not rely solely upon a formula-driven approach. This is the essence of short-term loan structuring.

Short-term loans and lines of credit require examination of several factors to reach the proper amount required. This is very important because underfunding or overfunding the amount a borrower requires to fund their operations can cause problems.

During this session, you will learn how to calculate the length of the financing gap, which is the time between receipt of cash from the operating cycle and the time required to pay creditors. Specifically, the course will demonstrate the key financial ratios to determine the financing gap, and how to utilize this data to determine the Asset Conversion Cycle and the Operating Cycle.

The course will then proceed to calculate the amount required to fund the financing gap by determining the Net Working Investment and the potential sources of cash to fund the gap before the institution’s funds are deployed.

What You'll Learn

  • Define the Asset Conversion Cycle, Operating Cycle, and Fixed Asset Cycle
  • Calculate the Financing Gap by Utilizing Financial Ratio Analysis
  • Determine Sources of Cash to Fund the Financing Gap Before the Institution’s Funds are Required
  • Address Why a Revolving Line of Credit is Not Revolving
  • Know the Common Causes of a Line of Credit Becoming Permanent Working Capital
  • Negotiate More Effectively with Borrowers Requesting Short-Term Funding

Who Should Attend

This session will benefit all individuals involved in credit administration including, but not limited to, credit analysts, commercial lenders, consumer lenders, branch managers, loan review personnel, senior loan officers, senior credit officers, directors, and members of the executive management team.
