AI Credit Review

across the complete borrower file

Review the annual credit package, borrower financials, covenant certificates, loan agreements, amendments and supporting schedules together.

Sample Finding

See when the compliance conclusion
relies on a superseded term

Illustrative finding: leverage covenant · Reported status: in compliance
SourceEvidence
Credit agreement, §7.12, p. 94Maximum Total Debt / EBITDA: 3.50x.
Amendment 2, §3, p. 11Maximum leverage reduced to 3.25x.
Compliance certificate, p. 2Reports Total Debt / EBITDA of 3.40x and marks the covenant “In Compliance”.
Credit finding

The compliance certificate appears to rely on the original 3.50x threshold. Amendment 2 changes the maximum leverage ratio to 3.25x. Based on the 3.40x ratio reported in the certificate, the stated compliance conclusion requires review.

Every part of the finding remains connected to the document and source location that supports it.

The Problem

The current credit position is rarely contained in one file

The prior credit memo explains the original decision.

Current financial statements show how the borrower has performed.

A compliance certificate reports covenant status.

An amendment changes the threshold.

A debt schedule shows obligations that may not appear in the memo.

A borrower update explains a variance — but another schedule may tell a different story.

The reviewer's question

Does the complete current borrower file support the credit position we are relying on now?

Continua analyzes the uploaded credit file as one investigation.

What Continua Reviews

Six reviews from one credit investigation

Credit Memo And Source Reconciliation

Compare material statements in the credit memo or annual review against financial statements, borrower schedules and other supporting evidence. Flag stale figures, unsupported adjustments and conclusions that do not reconcile.

Covenant And Loan-Term Review

Trace covenant definitions, thresholds, reporting requirements and other material obligations through the base agreement and later amendments.

Financial Inconsistencies

Surface conflicting revenue, EBITDA, debt, cash, leverage and other material figures across narrative documents and spreadsheets.

Changes Since The Prior Review

Compare current and prior credit materials to identify material changes in performance, obligations, assumptions and borrower disclosures.

Missing Or Unresolved Support

Identify material conclusions that are not established by the uploaded file set, expected support that is absent and conflicts that remain unresolved.

Source-Linked Findings

Link material conclusions to the supporting document, page, sheet, row or available source location so the reviewer can inspect the evidence directly.

Ask One Question

Ask the complete credit file one question

Review this commercial credit file for the current annual review or renewal. Reconcile the credit memo and borrower narrative against the current financial statements, debt schedules, covenant certificates, loan agreements, amendments and other supporting documents. Identify material changes, inconsistencies, unsupported assumptions, missing evidence and credit-relevant red flags. Trace current covenant and reporting terms through amendments. Distinguish facts from inference, preserve unresolved conflicts and cite every material finding to its source.

Continua returns a structured credit-review report designed for professional verification.

Common Investigations

Commercial credit reviews Continua is built for

Annual credit review

Review the current borrower package against the prior credit position and identify changes that could affect the risk assessment.

Credit renewal

Reconcile updated financial evidence, borrower disclosures and current agreement terms before a renewal or extension decision.

Covenant review

Determine which covenant definitions and thresholds currently govern, then compare reported compliance against the uploaded evidence.

Portfolio monitoring

Investigate changes in performance, leverage, liquidity, concentration or obligations within an existing exposure.

Credit memo verification

Check whether material statements and figures in a prepared memo are supported by the underlying documents.

Exception investigation

Start with a suspicious number, covenant issue, changed term or unexplained variance and trace the evidence across the complete file.

How It Works

From credit file to cited review

1

Upload the relevant borrower record

Include the credit memo, current and prior financials, borrower schedules, covenant certificates, loan agreements, amendments and other supporting files.

2

Define the review question

State whether the task is an annual review, renewal, covenant investigation, credit memo verification or another specific credit issue.

3

Analyze the complete file set

Continua reviews the uploaded documents and spreadsheets together and connects evidence across the borrower record.

4

Review findings and conflicts

Inspect material changes, inconsistent figures, current obligations, missing support and unresolved questions.

5

Open the evidence and export

Move from a finding to the underlying source and export the cited report for internal review.

Why Complete-File Analysis Matters

Built for credit issues that appear between documents

File-by-file reviewContinua
Reviews each document in isolationInvestigates the uploaded borrower file as one record
Relies on the prepared memo to summarize the caseChecks material conclusions against underlying evidence
May retain an original covenant after an amendmentTraces current terms through the agreement family
Can overlook a conflicting number in another fileSurfaces cross-document inconsistencies
Requires manual source tracingLinks material findings to source evidence
Can turn missing support into an implied assumptionKeeps unresolved and missing evidence visible

The difference matters when a credit conclusion depends on evidence scattered across financial, contractual and narrative files.

Scope

Credit investigation — not automated credit approval

Continua is designed to investigate and verify document evidence used in commercial credit work. It is not:

  • A loan origination system
  • A credit bureau or borrower-data provider
  • An automated approval or decline engine
  • A proprietary risk-rating model
  • A KYC, AML or sanctions platform
  • A substitute for credit policy or professional judgment

The credit team remains responsible for the final risk assessment and decision.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can Continua review financial statements and loan documents together?

Yes. Continua can analyze financial, contractual and narrative documents in the same investigation when the credit question depends on evidence across them.

Can it compare a credit memo with the underlying source documents?

Yes. Ask Continua to test material statements in the memo against the uploaded record and flag where support is missing, inconsistent or ambiguous.

Can it trace a covenant through amendments?

Yes. Continua can analyze the base agreement together with amendments, schedules and related documents to identify the current governing language. AI Contract Review offers the dedicated agreement workflow.

Can it identify what changed since the last review?

Yes. Upload the relevant prior and current materials and define the comparison scope. AI Document Comparison is also available for a change-focused workflow.

Does Continua make the credit decision?

No. It produces cited document analysis for professional review. Your team retains responsibility for credit policy, interpretation and the final decision.

Can it produce a decision-ready summary?

Yes. You can ask for a concise review organized around the credit decision, material findings, risks and open questions. See AI Executive Summary.
