Using Microsoft Copilot to Draft SBA 7(a) Credit Memos: Converting Financial Analysis Into Lender-Ready Credit Narratives — Thurs, June 4

Leveraging AI to Transform Tax Returns, Financial Statements, Cash Flow Analysis, and Credit Ratios Into SBA-Compliant Underwriter Credit Memos

Coleman Professional Webinar Training
Date: Thursday, June 4, 2026
Time: 2:00 p.m. Eastern
Includes e-certification & recording

Every SBA lender has a process for writing credit memoranda.

The challenge is not producing more analysis. The challenge is to organize borrowers’ financial information into a clear, defensible narrative that supports the credit decision while maintaining consistency across the underwriting process.

Microsoft Copilot is beginning to change how lenders approach that work.

In this Coleman Professional Training session, Bob Coleman will walk through how SBA professionals are using Microsoft Copilot to structure SBA 7(a) credit memo narratives from financial statements, tax returns, debt schedules, and cash flow analysis.

This is not a technology demonstration.

This is a working discussion about how experienced lenders can use AI tools to improve documentation flow, organize underwriting observations, accelerate narrative drafting, and maintain credit discipline while preserving lender judgment.

The session will focus on practical execution inside the SBA lending process.

Participants will review how Copilot can assist with:

• Structuring business operations narratives from borrower financial information

• Organizing ratio analysis and global cash flow commentary

• Summarizing tax return trends and historical performance

• Drafting management and ownership analysis

• Identifying missing documentation and follow-up items

• Standardizing memo formatting across underwriting teams

• Improving consistency between analysts and credit officers

• Reducing time spent converting numbers into a narrative explanation

• Coordinating internal underwriting workflow and documentation review

• Preserving lender credit judgment while using AI-assisted drafting tools

Bob will also discuss where Copilot fits within the existing underwriting structure, where lenders still need direct analytical review, and how institutions are beginning to establish internal guardrails around AI-assisted documentation.

This session is designed for experienced SBA professionals who already understand credit underwriting and want to evaluate how AI tools may fit into their existing process.

AI will not replace experienced SBA lenders.

But lenders who understand how to integrate AI-assisted workflow tools into credit administration may improve consistency, documentation speed, and underwriting efficiency.

This session provides a practical working discussion of how experienced SBA professionals are beginning to approach that transition.
