Loan Workouts & Collections
In today’s economic environment, lenders are encountering
an increasing number of troubled loans. While exploring creative
ways of restructuring these loans in an effective workout, lenders
are required to recognize the economic effect of any loan workout
and potential losses with regard to the loan. Ultimately, if attempts at a loan workout fail, the lender may be faced with foreclosing on and liquidating its collateral so as to minimize any potential losses.
With this in mind, Aldrich & Bonnefin is pleased to invite
you, your loan officers, loan workout specialists and special assets
personnel to attend a seminar on Loan Workouts and Collections.
This seminar will address the accounting and regulatory treatments of troubled debt restructures, as well as new federal programs for the purchase of troubled assets. In addition, the seminar will include a discussion of some of the issues a lender may
encounter when foreclosing on real estate collateral, including
new state law requirements for contacting the borrower before
proceeding with foreclosure, as well as choosing between judicial
and non-judicial foreclosure and bidding strategies.
Points of Interest Include:
Dealing with Problem Loans
Current Real Estate Foreclosure Issues
Exercising a Lender’s Right of Setoff

compliance developments. Special attention will be
