Credit Risk Management
In the past, managing the credit portfolio was considered good risk management. But in today's broader, more complex environment, best-practice institutions understand that they need to measure and manage risk across the entire enterprise. We recognize that managing credit risk is essential to enterprise-wide risk management, so we offer products and services to institutions and individuals involved in retail, commercial, and corporate credit risk. RMA is the premier provider of commercial credit education and information.

Courses
Retail lending has changed dramatically in the last couple of decades, moving from a largely intuitive process to an increasingly automated one. With automation comes the danger of rapidly magnifying problems, as with the U.S. mortgage crisis. Reliance on weak, out-dated models can create portfolio disasters. Managing a retail loan portfolio successfully depends on properly developing, validating, deploying, and integrating a wide range of models. Take any single course in this series or take all three for a combined discounted fee.
