Overview of the webinar

Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) do not change often, but when they do, we need to understand how changes in GAAP effects  borrowers’ and clients’ ability to repay.  GAAP now requires that companies capitalize their leases, and that may worsen their leverage, reduce their liquidity, lower their profitability, and reduce their ability to repay.

This webinar will explain why lease capitalization of both operating leases and financing leases will impact the financial condition and performance of borrowers.
