Shur spoke with ABF Journal for a short Q&A to provide a small preview of the panel and what attendees can expect.
What will be the focus of the lenders’ panel you are moderating at the event?
Shur: The panel will discuss a hypothetical loan transaction in a workout (based on an actual transaction) with detailed financial information, which will be analyzed and debated by a turnaround professional and three different lender representatives.
Who can benefit the most from attending this panel
Shur: Lenders, turnaround professionals and bankruptcy professionals will benefit from hearing about a current transaction and learning how the marketplace and current economic conditions affected the outcome.
What do you hope attendees will gain from the panel?
Shur: Attendees will learn about what other professionals do and think. Based upon my prior panels at these events, I often see discussion and referrals of business to and from panelists and attendees.
In addition to the lender’s panel, the conference will feature several other educational panels, as well as networking breaks and a cocktail reception to conclude the day. For more information and to register, click here.
