About This Webinar:
What is Asset Liability Management (ALM)?  Some say it’s the “rocket science” of the credit union industry.  But it’s actually managing loans and deposits over time in a manner that helps maintain the capital you need.  Although it is complicated, this course will make it easier and more understandable than ever before.  ALM is essentially identifying and quantifying risk now and in the future.  It is absolutely essential that every director understands the basic concepts and questions to ask about it.

This course will look at the fundamental concepts of ALM, what it means, how to learn more about it, how credit unions measure it, and what can happen if it isn’t done well or understood.  In addition, this webinar will provide updates on any new accounting and risk issues that have arisen during the year, such as the new interest rate risk regulation for federally-insured credit unions, effective September 30, 2012.

      Highlights
     - Basic building blocks of financial statements
     - Importance of capital
     - Learn about:
