Training Course in Credit Monitoring and Loan Recovery Strategy (Online / Remote)
1Summary
By the time a loan appears on a watch-list, a large part of the damage is usually already done. Strong banks don't wait for repayment problems to surface — they build continuous monitoring, timely credit reviews, and clear recovery procedures into the way every branch operates.
This training course from the Arab British Fellowship Training Academy gives participants a practical grounding in credit monitoring and recovery: how to follow up on facilities at branch level, when and how to renew credit, who is legally liable when a loan turns bad, and how the underlying accounting keeps every decision traceable.
