Self Diagnosis

Are you positioning your bank to compete from a position of strength?

  • Is your Bank looking to grow its asset base? If yes, how so?
  • Is your Bank looking to sell assets? If yes, are you considering individual or pooled sales? Are you considering securitizations?
  • Would your Bank benefit from accessing a loan syndication team on an "as needed" basis?
  • Is your Bank looking to diversify or modify its asset product mix?
  • Is your Bank considering a merger or sale with another bank? If so, have you considered asset dispositions or acquisitions to optimize this event?
  • Does your Bank wish to reduce its non-performing assets?
  • Does your Bank see lending opportunities that it cannot fund?
  • Would your Bank benefit from a liquidity partnership with a larger entity to help support asset growth?
  • Does your Bank seek fee generating opportunities like loan referrals or servicing?
  • Would your Bank consider engaging a third party to service certain asset classes on your Bank's behalf?
  • Would your Bank benefit from lending via no capital required, private label programs in a host of asset classes?
  • Is your Bank curious about the economic impact if it wanted to sell individual and/or pooled assets?
  • Do you really know what's going on in both your local and national lending arena?
  • Has your Bank written off any loan balances over the past few years?

Unless you have thought about these questions on a host of levels, you may not be optimizing the efficient utilization of your risk capital, human resources, and economic returns.
