DataMetrics for Lenders
Many borrowers are challenged in providing accurate and timely information to their Lenders with respect to the performance of the collateral and other important metrics. Field examinations generally do not provide the level of sophistication requisite for Lenders who have significant inventory exposure.
DataMetrics brings in data from almost any ERP system ranging from QuickBooks to SAP which populate sophisticated dash boards and reporting tables that provide significant value to the Lender as well as the Borrower.
- Analyzing and tracking reports can be difficult and time consuming if critical data is not provided by the borrower
- Untimely reporting and lack of proper analysis can lead to being under collateralized
- Frequent inventory appraisals can be costly and do not track inventory performance from month to month or other reporting periods
Field exams are limited, and reports are standardized
- Little up front analytics and planning
- Significant manual processes
- A large percentage of the report is dedicated to receivable statistics that is already available on the lender’s system.
