Collateral Field Examinations
3C Examinations specializes in collateral field examinations for commercial lenders with accounts receivable and inventory collateralized loans. These examinations provide lenders with a collateral risk assessment that allows them to structure their secured loan to optimize the lending capacity of the borrower’s collateral. 3C works with the lender to design the examination scope specific to their needs.
3CE provides the following types of field examinations:
- Due Diligence/Survey examinations on prospective borrowers
- Initial funding examinations to roll-forward and retest collateral for accurate collateral figures and funding requirements the day of funding
- Recurring examinations on existing borrowers
- Special collateral reviews performed when lenders discover a need to conduct a thorough review of their collateral outside of the standard recurring examination schedule
Data-mining Services
3C Examinations utilizes an industry data-mining software during collateral field examinations. Use of a data-mining software can provide additional analysis that would otherwise take considerable time to perform manually.
We provide data-mining services specific to the lender’s needs, including
- Establishing data-mining templates
- Recurring monitoring of ineligibles
- Pledging of assets in securitizations
