Business Lending Advisory Services

ATW Miller Group will look at cash flow, credit, character, capital, collateral, and conditions on behalf of a financial institution. We bring a second set of eyes, and a thorough understanding of what a financial institution reviews when considering financing a business.

Once a loan is underwritten and approved, ATW Miller Group can assist with ensuring that all the loan documentation is correct and is compliant with an individual financial institution’s loan policy. Going forward, ATW Miller Group will assist a lending institution in loan review, and monitoring performance of the business.

ATW Miller Group assists in recognizing and managing troubled loans in order to minimize possible losses to a lending institution. Ideally, a loan is restructured and the financial institution maintains the relationship with the business. ATW Miller Group’s philosophy is that time is of the essence in salvaging a troubled business and it is in all parties’ interest to a plan quickly.

ATW Miller Group offers independent portfolio loan review. We identify any risks, weaknesses, and opportunities for growth.
