*This portion of the course can be expanded an additional week to discuss novel ways to improve recovery rates on mortgages and other secured loans after they have gone into default.

**This portion of the course can be expanded to enable credit analysis to incorporate factors such as the profitability of other business related to a credit granting decision (such as the profitable sale of goods by a manufacturer in the case of the manufacturer providing credit to customers, and such as the future business earned by lenders on borrowers from granting credit).
