Risk Management Planning Seminar for 2001 The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) announces the location and date for its 2001 Risk Management Planning Seminar. Who Should Attend: Financial institution chief executive officers, directors, chief operating officers, chief financial officers and other executive level officers of banks, thrifts, and credit unions. Objectives of Program: To encourage top management to establish or improve systems that facilitate bank-wide risk management and to discuss issues in risk management with regulators. Location and Date: San Francisco, CA Conference Times: Registration begins Thursday at 7:30 a.m. Program Topic: "Identifying and Managing Technology Risks" With the successful transition of the industry beyond the initial year 2000 date change, technology continues to grow as an increasingly complicated operational risk area that requires new knowledge and expanded risk management techniques. While not ignoring traditional risks, we believe the 2001 Risk Management Planning Seminar can provide the most value to the industry by providing senior bank management with an update on the risks/benefits of these emerging technologies and the evolving regulatory responses.

The FFIEC was established in March 1979 to prescribe uniform principles,
standards, and report forms and to promote uniformity in the supervision
of financial institutions. The Council has five member agencies:
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation, the National Credit Union Administration,
the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the Office of
Thrift Supervision. The Council's activities are supported by interagency
task forces and by an advisory State Liaison Committee, comprised
of five representatives of state agencies that supervise financial
institutions. |
