Managing Debt Covenants and Financial Ratios in a Challenging Environment

For many institutions, managing covenants and financial ratios is an important strategic consideration for operational planning and debt management efforts.

In this complimentary webinar, attendees will gain insight into structuring of financial covenants for both publicly issued and privately placed debt, along with strategies for operational planning to meet covenants and financial ratios on an annual basis.

Additionally, we’ll explore the consequences of missing a covenant or ratio, and how institutions can work to remedy the issue should such a situation arise. Lastly, we will cover how debt financing affects the financial responsibility composite score and key considerations when planning new debt financing.

At the end of this session, you’ll be able to:

• Identify key strategies for structuring and management of financial covenants for loans and debt obligations
• Recall the ramifications of missing a financial covenant and potential solutions or remedies
• Recognize the impact of debt financing on the financial responsibility composite score and identify recommended practices for planning new debt financing initiatives
