Credit Memo

🔵 Stable🕐 updated 2026-07-14 🔷 SkillSpec L3 pm-banking

Write a credit memo for a lending decision: borrower story, facility structure, repayment sources, financial-ratio spread with covenant headroom, risk factors with mitigants, risk-rating rationale, and a recommendation. Use when asked to write a credit memo, credit application, credit paper, loan write-up, or prepare a deal for credit committee. Produces a complete credit memo ready for committee review.

What to give it

Borrower — business, ownership, years operating, management
Request — facility type, amount, tenor, purpose, proposed pricing and security
Financials — 2–3 years of revenue, EBITDA, debt, interest expense, working capital; projections if available
Existing exposure — and relationship history
Proposed covenants — and the institution's rating scale, if available

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

Purpose, tenor, and structure are consistent (no long assets on short money)
All three repayment sources are addressed; if primary DSCR <1.0x the memo says the deal leans on collateral
Collateral is valued on realistic liquidation basis with valuation date stated
Every risk has a mitigant or an explicit, reasoned acceptance — none is bare
Ratios show trend, not a single year; covenant headroom is computed
Rating rationale names its driver and the notch-mover in both directions
Assumed figures are labelled `[assumed — verify]`

⚠️ What it refuses to do

Do not list a risk without a mitigant or an explicit acceptance — bare risk lists are unfinished analysis
Do not let the borrower's narrative substitute for the numbers — reconcile story and spread, and flag where they disagree
Do not count a guarantee as a repayment source without verified guarantor liquidity
Do not use appraisal value as liquidation value
Do not bury the recommendation at the end — committee reads it first
