This course introduces the concept of Industry Concentration Risk within the Credit Monitoring & Portfolio Surveillance framework. It focuses on assessing the level of exposure concentration within specific industries to identify potential vulnerabilities arising from sector-specific downturns or adverse trends.
Learners will explore key assessment dimensions such as control lapses, early warning signal identification, risk trend analysis, and proactive portfolio risk management, with an emphasis on independent validation and well-documented rationale. The course also distinguishes industry concentration risk from broader portfolio diversification strategies, highlighting its specific role in identifying exposure-level and segment-level concentration risks.
By the end of the course, participants will understand how to evaluate industry concentration risk in practice, particularly within Portfolio Risk Trend Analysis, including validation of team-level analysis, approval of case recommendations, management of segment-level exposure, and escalation to the credit committee where required.
