AFS Risk Mitigation Services

The Asset Finance Services division of Howe Barnes Hoefer & Arnett has long served our clients with loan and asset valuations and disposition services. In response to both community bank and investor demand, AFS has established AFS Risk Mitigation Services ("RMS"). Given the ongoing state of the markets, loan and asset dispositions are not always a practical solution. Regardless of whether you are a bank or an investor in banks and/or loans, RMS identifies, segregates and proactively manages risk factors to help optimize loan repayment, risk identification and value realization.

By serving hundreds of community banks nationwide the AFS Risk Mitigation Services offers unique insight and:

  • Provides objective and independent loan evaluation, valuation and loan review services
  • Provides due diligence services in advance of sales or acquisitions, capital raises, external reviews and audits
  • Provides loan life-cycle best practices consultancy and implementation plans to achieve best of class status
  • Formulates work-out strategies that may include third party management, joint ventures and market-tested "block and tackle" strategies
  • Independent, objective and proactive management of downward trending credit migration to help minimize potential downside risk

RMS projects are intended to be a cost effective alternative where divestitures may not be a preferred course of action. Ranging from a single day to several weeks, call Ken Segal (781-631-2227) or Levi Richardson (401-941-0985) to learn more about what RMS can do for you.
