Bus/Financial - Accounting / stress testing
German term or phrase: Prophylaxe
The term is used in the following sentences:

Alle Finanzinstrumente, die nach Zugang im Rahmen der Kreditrisikofrüherkennung auffällig wurden und sich weiter bonitätstechnisch signifikant verschlechtert haben, werden intensiv in der Prophylaxe betreut.

Engagements mit nachhaltigen Warnindikatoren zur Früherkennung von Kreditrisiken mit nachhaltigem Risiko oder die enger Begleitung bedürfen, werden grundsätzlich in Prophylaxe eingestuft.

I was thinking along the lines of 'support' / 'intensive support' / 'intensive loan management' but would be grateful for any suggestions.

Kind regards
