Course Outline
Module 1
- Analysis of Personal Lending Propositions
- What information must customers provide to us?

- CAMPARI as a Mnemonic for Analyzing Personal Lending Propositions
- Character: What do we know about the customer, such as their track record with the bank and previous loan history?
- Ability: Where are the repayments coming from? What "spare" cash does the customer have to finance loan repayment?
- Margin: What is the appropriate interest rate for the lending? This is the "rent" we ask the customer to pay for our money, reflecting the degree of risk.
- Purpose: Why does the customer want the loan? Is it for an acceptable purchase that aligns with bank policies, and is the repayment period appropriate?
- Amount: How much does the customer wish to borrow? Are they contributing anything towards the purchase price or are we lending 100%?
- Repayment: What is the repayment schedule, and can the customer maintain these payments for the duration of the loan?
- Insurance: What security (collateral) do we expect to be offered? How easy will it be to perfect this security, providing the bank with the "insurance" it requires?
