  • Description:
    Financial institutions purchase loan participations to achieve growth and earnings goals, diversify credit risk, and deploy excess liquidity. Some institutions have successfully participated in shared credit facilities, which are arranged by bank and nonbank entities, by implementing effective due diligence and prudent credit risk management practices. However, purchasing banks' over-reliance on lead institutions has, in some instances, caused significant credit losses and contributed to bank failures, particularly for loans to out-of-territory borrowers and obligors involved in industries unfamiliar to the bank. This Advisory reminds state nonmember institutions of the importance of underwriting and administering loan participations in the same diligent manner as if they were being directly originated by the purchasing institution.
