Credit risk opinion

 

Company Analysis

 

Country risk                               :   Country risk is minimal

Operation trend                          :   Operational trend is steady

Management experience :   Management is modestly experienced

Financial performance                :   Financial performance is fair

Organisation structure                :   Organisational structure is acceptable

Detrimental                    :   No detrimental records found

Payment history                                    :   No payment delays noted

Credit amount suggestion           :   USD 15,000

Credit amount asked                  :   USD 1,000,000

 

Comments                                :   The credit amount requested is too large for the Subject to uphold. It is

advisable to conduct business dealing on prepayment or L/C basis for larger credit amount than suggested.

 

We took in consideration years of establishment, employees, nature of business and turnover. Subject operates on a small scale for the Invercargill community therefore credit amount requested is questionable with the proportion of turnover.
