Seminar Overview
As a result of the 2008 financial crisis, the Federal Financial Institutions Examiners Council (FFIEC) created guidelines on stress tests for capital, liquidity, and interest rate risk over the last three years. Although these guidelines are intended for large banks, the requirement is likely to filter down to community banks in the near future.
This informative Web seminar will explain the guidelines for each of these stress tests-capital, liquidity, and interest rate risk, including changes that have occurred since the January 2010 FFIEC pronouncement-from a community bank perspective.
Who will benefit?
Risk professionals at community banks, who are involved in designing or executing stress and scenario tests and interpreting the results, and senior management responsible for considering the response to test results or for discussing the results with regulators.
