The Credit Committee convenes meetings at least once every two weeks to deliberate and decide on lending-related matters. In making these decisions, the committee follows fundamental lending principles, including loan collectability, bank profitability, and the ability to meet the credit needs of both businesses and consumers. All decisions are subsequently presented at the monthly Board of Directors’ meeting for formal approval.
The Credit Committee is responsible for formulating appropriate lending policies to accommodate various loan types and borrower needs. These policies are submitted to the Board of Directors for ratification.
