Creating a Credit Application that Can Withstand the Depths of Time and Lawsuits: The Top 10 Things Your Company’s Credit Application Should Contain (OR NOT) – and Why

Wanda Borges, Principal Member, Borges Associates PLC

Today’s credit application is a far cry from the simple half-page document of years gone by. Laws are continually changing requiring tweaks to existing language. We are living in a world of electronic transactions which have very specific requirements. Creditors want a credit application that can serve as a binding contract. This program has been created for new credit managers who need to learn the fine art of credit applications as well as experienced credit managers who need to remain up to date on laws requiring changes or additions to existing verbiage. This presenter will also discuss why some provisions should not be included in a credit application Top Ten items to be discussed will include the cardinal rule of credit, statutory compliance, personal guaranties, security interests under UCC Article 9 and electronic transactions.

1:00 — 2:00 PM
