In this episode, we focus on the regulators. What will they expect in order to demonstrate we are making 'prudent' judgments and identifying which borrowers or prospective borrowers are experiencing a 'short-term' setback rather than a complete melt-down? And what else are they paying attention to...and helping us with? How can we document our thinking and show the examiners our prudent steps to mitigate risk during this downturn?
