Tuesday, August 27, 2024

1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Farm Credit borrowers are constantly evolving and diversifying their sources of revenues, including foreign operations. These tactics may reduce the borrower’s credit risk profile, leading to more competition for their business with commercial lenders. However, as borrowers become less dependent on traditional agricultural operations, they could be exposing Farm Credit to added reputation risk. The panelists will provide their insight into how procedures and processes can be updated to control and monitor reputation risks within the loan portfolio.
