Introduction
The programme “Monitoring Loans and Financing Through Digital Systems” develops professional practice in Risk and Credit. It connects the subject with workplace challenges by examining existing evidence and practices and choosing methods appropriate to the organization and its available resources.
The learning progresses from financial statement and report analysis to cash, liquidity, and working capital management, with practical work on designing digital transformation and developing services, credit analysis and banking risk, risk assessment, controls, and response. Participants prepare outputs to support workplace application and review the quality and results of implementation.
Learning objectives
- Interpret performance, financial position, and cash flows using documented analysis with clear limitations in an application related to “Monitoring Loans and Financing Through Digital Systems”.
- Assess digitization opportunities and define implementation requirements that improve a service or process.
- Prepare a credit analysis and risk scenario showing repayment capacity and controls.
- Prepare a risk register connecting causes, consequences, controls, and treatment responsibilities.
- Prepare a cash forecast and options for addressing liquidity and working capital gaps.
Learning areas
1. Financial Statement and Report Analysis
- Read the relationships between the statements of financial position, performance, and cash flows and the notes, identifying the effects of accounting policies and estimates.
- Perform horizontal and vertical analysis and compare profitability, liquidity, efficiency, and leverage indicators, considering the nature and size of the business.
- Examine earnings quality, cash flows, and nonrecurring items, and identify differences between accounting results and actual liquidity.
- Test the sensitivity of results to changes in sales, costs, collections, and financing, stating the assumptions and constraints in each scenario.
- Write a financial report linking indicators to management's question and available alternatives, presenting risks and additional data needed for the decision. The application examines a case related to “Monitoring Loans and Financing Through Digital Systems”.
2. Designing Digital Transformation and Developing Services
- Distinguish information digitization, step automation, and business model transformation, and identify the problem targeted by the digital intervention.
- Map the beneficiary journey, touchpoints, and repeated data requests, and identify opportunities for simplification before selecting technology.
- Analyze readiness across procedures, skills, data, and technical infrastructure, and document gaps and dependencies on existing systems.
- Specify solution, integration, access permission, usability, and accessibility requirements, and establish testable acceptance criteria.
- Design a limited-scope pilot with indicators for time, quality, and use, and define conditions for continuing, adjusting, or stopping.
3. Credit Analysis and Banking Risk
- Analyze the financing purpose, repayment sources, and nature of the business, and review the financial and nonfinancial data needed to assess the customer.
- Assess cash flows, debt servicing capacity, and collateral, distinguishing the primary repayment source from supplementary protections.
- Classify relevant credit, market, liquidity, and operational risks, considering the applicable regulatory framework and internal policies.
- Test the effects of changes in revenues, prices, and maturities on repayment capacity, and define conditions and monitoring requirements addressing the identified risks.
- Prepare a documented recommendation covering limits, assumptions, information gaps, and warning indicators without turning the training case into an actual financing decision.
4. Risk Assessment, Controls, and Response
- Define the work context, objectives, and assessment boundaries, and distinguish the risk source, potential event, and effects on results.
- Gather risks from processes, data, past incidents, and interviews with responsible staff, and document causes and existing controls.
- Estimate likelihood and impact using stated criteria, and review control effectiveness to determine residual risk levels.
- Select a response proportionate to the risks, resources, and authority, and specify the owner, deadline, and early warning indicator.
- Test a scenario involving changing circumstances, update the risk register, and present material risks and required decisions to the appropriate authority.
5. Cash, Liquidity, and Working Capital Management
- Analyze the cash cycle from purchasing to collection, identifying the effects of inventory, receivables, and payment terms on financing needs.
- Forecast receipts and payments by maturity, and document data sources and the likelihood of delays in expected cash flows.
- Classify receivables and debt aging, track collections and settlements, and connect follow-up actions to approved authorities and policies.
- Compare options for addressing deficits or deploying surpluses according to cost, liquidity, risk, and contractual constraints requiring review.
- Test a cash stress scenario, set alert thresholds and escalation actions, and update forecasts based on actual results.
Practical outputs
- A comparative financial analysis report and a memo of findings and assumptions.
- A digital transformation roadmap covering the beneficiary journey and implementation requirements.
- A credit memo, risk register, and early warning indicators.
