5 Learner Rating
SME Financing Expert Certification, in collaboration with enterprises, provides a qualitative leap in the knowledge and skills required for those holding advanced positions in the management of small and medium enterprises. The certification includes advanced technical knowledge necessary to assess the financial and credit status of the borrower by reviewing the tools and skills required for advanced credit analysis in order to make sound credit decisions. In addition, it covers the analysis of various types of risks associated with credit decisions and how to manage and mitigate these risks in accordance with Basel requirements and regulatory frameworks. The certification is not limited to studying each borrower individually; it also addresses broader skills and knowledge for the effective management of SME loan portfolios to reduce sector-related risks within the bank. Furthermore, it goes beyond the credit granting phase to include the analysis and treatment of non-performing loans, as well as equipping participants with the skills and knowledge needed to build an effective sales network capable of maximizing sales while minimizing risks. Upon completion of this training program, which concludes with a professional exam, registration for the exam is available through the trainee's account on the Financial Academy website
