The Coming Paradigm Shift from 

Creditor to Debtor in Loan Repayment Solutions

Empowering Small Business to Repay Debt

Introduction

 

US Debt Burden

Ever increasing debt and stress levels for individuals, families, and small businesses will become increasingly acute.

 

Seasons of Default and Restructuring

Debt levels are becoming increasingly unsustainable

 

Paradigm Shift from Creditor to Debtor

You must have your say as to what is appropriate in terms of your ability to repay

 

Debtor-Proposed Repayment Solutions

Debtors simply cannot, or should not, rely on creditors to give them the necessary time and attention

 

Understanding Credit Risk Terminology, Underwriting Standards and Guidelines 

Debtors will understand credit risk, use financial tools, and better negotiate a win-win

 

Debtor-Prepared Pro Forma Cash Flow Statements

A debtor-prepared pro forma cash flow statement is the bridge for repayment; it’s all about the cash position

 

Lenders Are to Prudently Work with Debtors

Creditors need your assistance; a cooperative win-win relationship is being prudent – even if the numbers 

are bad

NCARA listens to small business by asking directly: “What’s important to you, and why?”

 

Debtors Taking the Lead During Economic Downturns and Beyond
