Living with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB)

The role of the CFPB for most credit unions has been at best a foggy picture. This session will clear the air. You will learn about currently proposed rules and what regulations the CFPB will have control over, what their power is over non-banks, and what the CFPB might do next.
Steve Van Beek, Esq., NCCO, Director of Regulatory Compliance, NAFCU

Technology Compliance Hot Buttons

There’s no shortage of “hot buttons” in the technology space. For example, regulators want at least six kinds of IT risk assessments. Risk assessments help management identify pitfalls that must be addressed. Is our disaster recovery plan sufficient? Is our members’ non-public information adequately protected? Is our IT audit coverage sufficient? How do we risk assess ACH, electronic banking and remote deposit capture? Learn how to exploit your credit union’s disaster recovery plans for other purposes, such as employee training and business process improvement. Learn the latest regulatory focus on technology, and how other credit unions are addressing IT issues.

Payment Fraud Trends and Prevention Strategies

Fraud is a perennial concern for all financial institutions. Despite the rapid adoption of electronic payments, check fraud attempts and losses continue to outpace fraud attempts and losses for other payment types. However, electronic payments have enabled newer and more headline-grabbing fraud attempts and losses, and fraudsters are becoming more sophisticated in exploiting vulnerabilities introduced by electronic payments. Discover which payment methods appear most vulnerable to fraud and the types of fraud schemes that have been most successful through a review of recent payments fraud data. Get practical fraud prevention methods to better protect your credit union and your members.
