Microphone2 1000x667

Husch Blackwell LLP recently issued the following announcement.

It has become apparent that the short-term “fixes” provided by the federal and state governments will be insufficient in preventing the COVID-19 crisis from having a drastic impact on borrowers. Lenders need to be prepared for the long-term effects this pandemic will have on many borrowers, especially as initial grants of payment deferrals and other concessions made to borrowers expire.

As this environment increases the troubled debt, workouts and insolvency matters that many lenders are handling, it is necessary to evaluate loan portfolios to identify at-risk credit facilities, manage risk and work with borrowers to maximize repayment.
