This course is designed to provide you with an understanding of the difference between the existing GAAP incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses and the new CECL model. We will review the changes in ASU’s related to the new guidance, along with the implications of these changes. The course will provide up-to-date information on reporting and implementation of the CECL models.
