Department Profile
Credit Risk Management (CRM) provides independent oversight of the Firm’s credit risks and acts as the guardian of the Firm’s capital. CRM evaluates credit risk transactions and approves, rejects, or modifies them based on their overall risk profile and the availability and appropriateness of arrangements for reducing or mitigating credit risk. CRM assigns Internal Credit Ratings which quantify the level of risk; establishes and manages credit risk limits in accordance with the risk tolerance established by the Board; and monitors and reports on credit risk exposures on a regular basis to the Chief Risk Officer and senior management. CRM also interacts with business units to ensure that credit risk assessments are factored into business decisions.
