Job description

In financial terms, credit is the provision of fund, typically in the form of a loan, from one party to another, where the receiving party does not repay this loan immediately. This results in a debt which the receiving party agrees to pay back at a later date, observing certain terms and conditions, not the least of which is the payment of interest as well as the original amount.

Credit Risk Analysts assess the risks involved in providing a loan to an individual, company or institution.

Typical tasks include:

• Compiling statistics to assist in analysis.
• Risk assessment analysis.
• Advising on risk reduction.
• Preparing and issuing regular reports.
• Monitoring and assessing market trends.
• Maintaining an expert knowledge of industry standards and government regulations.

Qualifications

Much of the training in credit is provided on the job. Some industry bodies, such as the Institute of Credit Management (ICM) provide professional qualifications.
