Overview

About this course

The Advanced Diploma in Credit Management gives participants a deeper understanding of credit management and its associated risks, to help financial organisations stay sustainable. IBSL lists four objectives: building professionalism in credit management, developing skills for senior positions in financial services, fostering a business risk-taking culture in credit, and strengthening skills for handling large corporate credits. Four modules cover credit administration functions, credit appraisal and decision making, specialised lending fields, and remedial management. The specialised lending module includes lease financing, hire purchase, venture capital financing, factoring, syndicated loans and Islamic banking lending products. The remedial module covers monitoring, rehabilitation, restructuring and rescheduling of problem loans, legal procedures and write-offs. It runs for 96 hours in English, with the last published intake held on Sunday afternoons. A certificate is awarded.
