This course equips learners with practical, industry-relevant knowledge to identify, measure, monitor, and manage credit risk across lending portfolios. Participants will explore causes of credit deterioration, regulatory perspectives, asset classification, non-performing assets (NPAs), and the financial impact of weak credit controls. The course further develops analytical skills in probability of default, loss estimation, exposure assessment, and credit evaluation processes. What makes this course unique is its structured progression from foundational credit risk concepts to advanced applications such as off-balance sheet exposures, investment banking risk, and credit risk mitigation tools including collateral, guarantees, and credit derivatives. By completing this course, learners will strengthen their ability to make informed credit decisions, enhance portfolio quality, and apply practical risk management strategies aligned with modern banking practices.

This module introduces the core concepts of risk and credit risk in banking, examines regulatory perspectives including RBI guidelines, explores internal and external causes of credit risk, and explains the importance of proper loan appraisal and the consequences of weak credit management.
