Board Reports Who, What, When, Where and How
(Presented By: Andy Zavoina)
Your board of directors has its own mission statement. In concert with management, long and short-term goals must be established. These form the framework for your strategic plan. The board helps in your planning process by approving policies which act as roadmaps. And contained, at least in part, in these policies are controls which assist in evaluating compliance with laws and policies.  | WEBINAR TIME:
11:30AM - 1:30PM PT
12:30PM - 2:30PM MT
1:30PM - 3:30PM CT
2:30PM - 4:30PM ET |  |

What policies must exist? There is no single list or answer to fit every institution We'll discuss the variables that influence which policies you should have, as well as those policies that are always required. These include:
loans, including internal loan review procedures
investments
asset-liability/funds management
profit planning and budget
capital planning
internal controls
compliance activities
audit program
conflicts of interest
code of ethics
In addition, we'll discuss some streamlining procedures that can help in the production, revision and maintenance of your bank policies.
The controls that are in place must be effective and allow for fine-tuning to ensure everything is done as it should be. While the board won't "do" the monitoring, they will review reports which sum up monitoring efforts and reflect the overall condition of your bank and adherence to the directions provided.
Reports provided to the board must be at the appropriate level and meaningful. The detail and frequency will depend on your institution, but sometimes it helps to think outside the box and re-think the time spent on your current reporting processes.
Reports generally will include information such as the following:
the income and expenses of the institution
loans and investments made
past due and negotiated loans and investments
problem loans, their present status and workout programs
allowance for possible loan losses
concentrations of credit
losses and recoveries on sales, collections, or other dispositions of assets
funding activities and the management of interest rate risk
performance in all of the above areas compared to past performance as well as to peer groups' performance
all insider transactions that benefit, directly or indirectly, controlling shareholders, directors, officers, employees, or their related interests
activities undertaken to ensure compliance with applicable laws (including, among others, lending limits, consumer requirements, security, and the Bank Secrecy Act,) and any significant compliance problems
any extraordinary development likely to impact the integrity, safety, or profitability of the institution
Providing meaningful policies and reports is the focus of this webinar. While there is no "one size fits all" solution, we will discuss in detail the reports and policies that are required and how often these issues should be discussed. Ensuring the content of policies and reports is complete will also be discussed as well as several avenues for delivery. This presentation will not discuss the content of each board report, but the content in general terms. We will a focus on security, compliance and Community Reinvestment Act reporting as examples.
