Debt Restructuring Webinar
January 4, 2011, Alexandria, Va. – National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) Board Member Gigi Hyland
will host a webinar on Thursday, January 6, 2011 entitled “Troubled Debt Restructurings: What are they &
How Does the Accounting Work?” The webinar will begin at 2:00 p.m. EST and end at 3:30 p.m. EST. The
webinar is free and open to the public.
Webinar Overview
Drawing from the diverse expertise of the Crowe Horwath team, the webinar will facilitate credit union
understanding of US GAAP in relation to troubled debt restructurings. In the current economic environment,
credit unions have worked with their members to modify loans. If certain conditions are present, there are
unique financial reporting implications to credit union modification decisions. The Crowe Horwath presenters
will help us understand some of the TDR reporting challenges. The webinar is designed to be interactive and
Q&A will be an integral part of the presentation.
Webinar Agenda
What is a TDR?
How is financial difficulty defined?
What is a concession?
How do you measure impairment on a TDR modification?
