Automated Covenant Alerts

Alerts that find you before the breach finds you

Automated covenant alerts are the difference between a portfolio team that fixes problems proactively and one that explains problems after the fact. CapitalBridge sends email + dashboard notifications the moment a covenant value enters the headroom buffer or crosses the threshold. Configurable escalation rules route amber to the fund manager and red breaches to the credit committee. Suppression logic prevents alert fatigue.

How Alerts Work

Three alert classes, one notification system

Headroom warnings (amber)

Triggered when a covenant value enters the configured headroom buffer. Routed to portfolio manager + credit analyst. Email + dashboard. Suppressed if status was already amber on the prior period.

Breach alerts (red)

Triggered when a covenant value crosses the threshold. Routed to portfolio manager, credit committee chair, head of risk, plus any named escalation recipients. Email + dashboard. Logged in audit trail.

Reminder cadence

7-tier escalation for missed financial data: -7d (heads-up to borrower), due, +1d, +3d, +7d, +14d, +30d. Each tier escalates the recipient list. Borrower self-service portal shows the same calendar so deadlines are visible to both sides.

Capabilities

Alert system designed for compliance teams

Configurable escalation rules

Per covenant, per status (amber, red), per borrower category. Set who gets alerted, in what order, with what cadence. Override at borrower level for stressed credits requiring tighter escalation.

7-tier reminder schedule

Submission deadline reminders fire at -7d (advance), due date, +1d, +3d, +7d, +14d, +30d. Each tier widens the recipient list, applying gentle pressure without spamming.

Suppression + dedupe

No re-firing of the same alert until status changes. If a covenant is already amber, the next quarter does not re-trigger an amber alert. New status transitions = new alerts. Avoids alert fatigue that kills attention.

Audit-ready notification log

Every alert, every recipient, every timestamp logged in the audit trail. When auditors ask "did the credit committee know about this breach when it happened?" the answer is in one query, not an email archaeology project.

Borrower-side visibility

Same alerts surface in the borrower self-service portal. Borrowers see their own deadlines, status changes, and escalations. Many breaches get fixed by the borrower before the fund team needs to engage.

"The gap between a $200K enterprise platform and a shared spreadsheet should not be this wide. We built the thing that belongs in that gap."
