Hidden Tax Debt: What You Should Know About Your Borrowers, but Probably Don’t
Are you lending to businesses with significant off-the-books liabilities you don’t know about? Our data suggests most lenders are unable to identify the nearly 20% of businesses with hidden tax debt, but it’s not their fault. Delinquent federal tax debt accounts are at a 15-year high while federal tax lien filings have declined to a 15-year low. Making matters worse, a credit report and other public record data can’t identify this dangerous credit risk gap. In this session, you will learn how other successful commercial lenders have transformed their credit decisioning processes to quickly identify borrowers’ hidden tax debts, uncover cash flow issues, and make more confident credit risk decisions.
