Concentrations of Credit Policy
This Concentrations of Credit Policy addresses how a bank, credit union, fintech company, or other type of financial institution prudently identifies, measures, monitors, and controls credit activities through concentrations of credit (loan concentrations) in order to help achieve effective loan portfolio management (LPM). This process helps an organization to understand not only the risk posed by each credit, but also how the risks of individual loans and portfolios are interrelated.
