How do bank decide who to lend to? Normally we analyse the customers That means that we analyse the annual reports, the figures during the year.

We also discuss the loan with the customer what kind of loan is it? Is it a short-term loan or is it a long-term loan? It's very important to know the maturity of this loan, If we lend money for a long time we have to be sure that the customer can repay this. Normally company must be able to repay the loan from the operating cash flow, the EBIT of the company. Our decision also depends on the bank'portfolio.

And if we overstep this limit with the new customer, we need a new approval for the higher limit for the sector, and we have to decide if it's increase the credit limit for the sector. We also have a rating for each sector, and we have to decide if it is a sector with a good rating or a sector with a bad rating. If you have a sector with a bad rating we normally only finance the best companies in this sector. Sometimes the customer would like to finance some different transactions in foreign countries. If we finance transactions in Eastern Europe or in Asia we have to look at the country rating and we have to limit for this country.
