12:30 — 3:00 p.m.        ▪   ALM Workshop Leader: Bob Powers

Economic & Trends Update
Financial institutions’ profit-and-loss standings are tied to fluctuating economic conditions and market volatility. In a weakened economy such as ours credit unions confront financial uncertainty on a day-to-day basis. Dr. Lane will address national and state economic issues that impact credit union operations in today’s economy.

Asset/Liability Management
Asset/liability management is not a single technique and it is certainly not precise. Approaches or a combination of approaches to managing interest rate risks is different from credit union to credit union. Monitoring, measuring, and controlling many types of risk are at the center of credit union management. This session will focus on administering certain important interest rate risk components of the retail financial service business of credit unions, on both sides of the balance sheet.
