FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: ABA Telebriefing – What Bank Executives Need to Know About Dodd-Frank
WASHINGTON — To help bank executives prepare for the massive regulatory changes coming over the next three years, the American Bankers Association has developed a comprehensive telephone briefing series to focus on the most relevant and urgent issues they will need to address. The series, entitled “Strategic Planning for Dodd-Frank” is designed for bank CEOs, Chief Lenders, CFOs, Retail Directors, Marketing Officers, and many other senior bank management positions. The first briefing will be held on Thursday, February 17, 2011 from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. ET.
Rather than reciting the law, content will be organized according to typical bank balance sheet and product profiles. The briefings will introduce a strategic planning “dashboard tool” to help executives focus on the most important issues impacting their banks’ strategic direction during the next 12 to 18 months including origination mix, product development, fee income generation, capital, funding and liquidity planning, corporate governance and executive compensation. This tool was developed by Treliant Risk Advisors, compliance and strategic advisors to the financial services industry.
Sessions include:
• Revenue Generation: Asset and Fee Planning
Thursday, February 17, 2011 from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. ET
• Financing: Capital and Liquidity Management
Tuesday, March 1, 2011 from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. ET
• Corporate Development: Governance, Risk Management and Executive Compensation
Tuesday, March 22, 2011 from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. ET
Mark Tenhundfeld, senior vice president of ABA’s Office of Regulatory Policy will moderate the sessions. Presenters will include industry experts from Treliant Risk Advisors and Dechert LLP.
“Today, bankers are faced with the most complicated maze of new regulations in history,” Tenhundfeld said. “These briefings will help senior executives understand which parts of their business will be most impacted by Dodd-Frank and will provide the tools they’ll need to prepare for necessary changes.”
Members of ABA, the Institute of Certified Bankers (ICB) and ABA service members can receive all three briefings for a special discounted price of $615, which entitles registrants to one phone connection at one location for each briefing where an unlimited number of listeners can participate. Individual sessions can be purchased for $225 for members and $355 for non-members. For those unable to attend, CDs of the sessions can be ordered.
In addition, ICB credits may be available for participants.
