Overview

Professionals in Credit & Recoveries at banking institutions assess and manage credit applications from individuals and businesses. They analyze creditworthiness, verify documentation, and ensure compliance with bank policies while recommending decisions to minimize risks.

Their role also involves monitoring portfolios, identifying potential risks, and contributing to the bank’s financial health by streamlining processes and maintaining efficient credit risk management practices. When clients fall behind on payments, credit and recoveries specialists work to recover outstanding debts through negotiation, restructuring, or legal action if necessary. Typically, banking credit and recoveries professionals hold a degree in finance, business, or economics, and may pursue further certifications.
