When a borrower can not meet his obligations, our team of experts offer everything from advice on basic strategy to developing and implementing a game plan for each of your problem loans.

 Identifying Problem Loans 

Early Detection of Problem loans is critical to ensuring maximum recovery.  Duff & Associates have developed a unique and versatile loan review system designed for financial institutions.  The D&A Portfolio Review System offers banks an accurate and efficient method of evaluating bank credit ratings for an individual loan or entire loan portfolio.  The  system incorporates the most comprehensive asset based credit review methods to deliver the reliable and objective information you need to make important management decisions.  The system delivers credit information you can count on to provide you with early detection of problem loans.  Unlike conventional credit rating systems, we offer detailed backup and in-depth reports on each credit rating, to pinpoint the strengths and weaknesses of each loan.

Management & Monitoring

We offer in-depth consulting, evaluations and field audits for your most serious loan problems.  After reviewing financial reports and conducting a credit appraisal, our consultants begin an examination of other factors which may impact the borrower's ability to meet his financial obligations.  We examine internal factors to include an analysis of management decisions and external factors that may impact the borrowers industry.  We analyze a borrowers financial track record, we monitor cash collateral and other business activities to provide management with detailed reports including an executive summary outlining recovery options.  Our in depth reporting procedures are the key to providing financial institutions with timely and accurate information on each problem loan we monitor.

Turnarounds & Workouts

Once we have identified the specific problems which have prevented a debtor from meeting their financial obligations, a comprehensive, independent analysis of the borrower's potential for recovery and the viability for long term success is provided.   Next, we prioritize those steps necessary for an effective recovery program and formulate an action plan to ensure that no recovery opportunity is overlooked.

Duff & Associates works directly with the borrower to facilitate a workout program.  We work closely with accountants, auditors and legal professionals.  We also have the ability to assemble an independent team of highly qualified operational and marketing professionals to assist the troubled companies management in achieving an effective turn around program.  We play a vital role in seeking alternative funding, new investors or potential buyers for troubled companies.  Our total efforts are dedicated to maximize each and every recovery opportunity, and to remove the name of troubled companies from the list in your workout department's portfolio.

Liquidation Management

Duff and Associates is capable of assuming immediate operational control on behalf of financial institutions during liquidations or in specific cases where other legal alternatives are being examined.  Our immediate goal is to restore cash flow to stabilize the problem while implementing the recovery plan.  We work closely with the financial institution, its legal representatives and court appointed officials, to ensure a speedy and successful liquidation process.
