ABOUT THIS WEBINAR With the volatility in today's market, now is the time for your credit union to recharge your asset-liability management process into a profit center. Asset-liability management practices and controls hold the future to your net interest margin. Many credit unions continue to view the asset-liability management process as a measure of risk. We measure earnings and value at risk. But a major question remains unanswered. What about return? Isn't risk taking in any area of life measured against the possible return? Credit union ALM policies and practices continue to focus on the question of how much risk is in the current balance sheet. Little time or thought is placed on identifying the returns associated with those risks. Risk without return provides management and board with no foundation for decision making.
Through this webinar you will:
- Evaluate and modify risk measurements
- Understand how to use both EAR and VAR limits together for decision making
- Document the impact and source of key assumptions on risk profile
- Present more meaningful board and ALCO reports
You will also examine common mistakes in ALM practices including:
- Policy Limits
- Risk Measures
- Key Assumptions
Upon completion of this webinar, attendees will understand how to move from historical analysis to more progressive and forward-looking analysis to capture the best opportunities for growth and profitability. You will be able to evaluate the value of internal policies for risk vs. return and document those major elements that influence risk.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND This webinar is beneficial for financial management staff, accounting staff, management, or any other credit union staff who desire to learn more about financial management issues.
