Business Continuity – Survive the Exam or Survive the Disaster?

Do you update your plan the week before the NCUA examiner arrives? Do your exercises consist of executives sitting around the table and discussing what they would do in a disaster? Discussion is helpful, but to survive the disaster, you must exercise the actual plan. Learn the process for determining how long you would have before the adverse effects begin if there is an outage of your tellers, collections, call center or communications. Learn how to provide essential leadership support to your business continuity program and survive an actual disaster, not just your exam.

Data-Driven Insight: The Power of Business Analytics

The global financial crisis rocked financial institutions in ways not seen since the Great Depression. Credit unions have been hit hard as they struggle to raise capital, invest in new technology, hire qualified personnel and meet regulatory demands. In this session, we will discuss how an investment in a scalable business analytics solution can help credit unions achieve data-driven insight and meet new industry realities. Learn about technologies and strategies that can enhance member relationships and restore member confidence; improve risk management while rebuilding liquidity and your overall capital positions; and engage and manage regulators and other stakeholders in a new era of intense oversight and scrutiny. Also discover how business analytics can help you reduce operational losses and combat financial crime while allowing you to identify new ways to drive income and enhance member value.
