    A credit risk analyst assesses the likelihood that individuals or businesses may not be able to repay their loans or fulfill financial obligations. They analyze various factors such as credit histories, financial statements, and market trends to evaluate the risk associated with lending money or extending credit. The goal is to help financial institutions make informed decisions, manage risks, and maintain a healthy credit portfolio.

    Credit risk refers to the potential loss that a lender or investor may incur if a borrower fails to repay a loan or meet their financial obligations. It is the risk that the borrower may default on their payment, leading to financial losses for the creditor. Credit risk assessment involves evaluating the borrower's creditworthiness, which includes analyzing their credit history, financial health, and other relevant factors. Effective management of credit risk is crucial for financial institutions to make informed lending decisions and safeguard their financial stability.

    You have a lot of good base knowledge but make sure you become familiar with the financial statements. There might be introductory ACCA courses to do which can help and show employees. Long run you can look at CA or CFA but only if it's a serious career and struggling to get into it

    Mastering understanding the financial statements is very important. Make sure your fundamentals are good and you're always questioning what customer says about their statements. Read some credit rating reports to have an idea e.g. Moodys. And learn sql.

    You wont generally be asked coding questions. Focus more on credit analysis for interviews. But doing SQL as a basics via online courses would give you a big advantage compared to someone who doesn’t know it.
