In addition, we will discuss reporting TDRs/Modified loans, as well as Reference Rate Reform matters as the termination of LIBOR became effective on June 30, 2023. This 3-part virtual will provide information on new, proposed and revised changes to the Call Report with identification of specific Call Report line items impacted. Accounting guidance and regulatory changes will be discussed and presented in order to update those with Call Report preparation and review responsibilities. In addition, this 3-part virtual training will provide basic training for new preparers and include extensive coverage of new and complex issues for experienced preparers. New, proposed and revised changes will be presented in summary form at the beginning of the seminar with detailed discussion over the course of the training as we work through the schedules impacted by the changes applicable in current reporting as well as proposed reporting in the future.

Choosing the Right ALM Modeling Solution: In-House and Outsourced Solutions and Risk Assessments (Digital Version) With an introduction and explanatory copy throughout from Christine Mills, Managing Director of MountainView Financial Solutions, A Situs Company, this exclusive resource includes information on in-house models, outsourced models and risk assessments from the following industry-leading ALM model vendors: ALM First The Baker Group, LP Darling Consulting Group Empyrean Solutions FICast Data, An Empyrean Company Fiserv, Inc. IRR-analytics, LLC McQueen Financial Advisors, Inc. Plansmith ProBank Austin ZM Financial Systems (ZMFS) Whether you’re just getting started in your search for an ALM solution, considering a change of vendor or contemplating a shift from an in-house to outsourced model, this new online resource is full of helpful, practical guidance to help make the important decisions facing your institution.
When you consider everything you have to do to effectively manage your asset/liability process (interest rate risk modeling, liquidity measurement and management, contingency funding/planning, supporting model inputs and validating model outputs), it’s no wonder ALM and liquidity are a key area of focus not just for financial managers but also for examiners. Banks and credit unions of all sizes and complexities face new and unique challenges include maintaining accurate data, keeping abreast of regulatory requirements, and producing results in which stakeholders can have confidence. We are relying on models more than ever to manage our institutions but constantly find ourselves challenged to develop and support assumptions that reflect current business practices and to use the model in a way that drives strategic discussion and decision-making. This virtual program with Alpha Numeric Consulting, LLC and Darlign Consulting Group serves as a refresher course for those that have been involved with asset-liability management, continuing education for ALCO/Board members and senior management that are accountable but not involved in the day-to-day modeling, and a comprehensive overview and introduction to those that are new to the financial services industry. Informative and collaborative discussion is also helpful to all attendees, including staff, management and internal/external auditors. Over the course of two-days, this virtual four-hour seminar will provide you with detailed examples of how to most accurately construct a model that identifies your true risk profile and acts as a foundation for strategic discussions aimed at risk management and earnings optimization.
