steadfast execution to financial institutions through its Bank
Examination service line. By applying high-level resources and
best practices to meet clients’ needs, MFA has consistently
delivered real ROI through its examination and loan review
support services.
Over the years, MFA has been responsible for determining the quality of a
borrower’s collateral for pre-loan and existing loan situations. The results of
our examinations have aided lenders in determining the amount to advance
their customers and the quality of their collateral and underlying earnings
and cash flows. In addition, MFA is often engaged to provide consultation
on structure and borrowing base formulas.
