Panel facilitated by Joan Reukauf, OBA Chair & EVP & Chief Operating Officer, People’s Bank of Commerce.
Banks are in the business of managing risk. We often talk about credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, cyber risk, and the list goes on and on. But what about political risk? Or how about regulatory compliance risk, which grows steadily as new rules are churned out? Having advocates on the ground in Washington, D.C. is critical to managing our regulatory and political risks. During this session, advocacy experts from both the American Bankers Association and the Independent Community Bankers of America will discuss the most pressing issues and advocacy priorities facing our nation’s banking industry.
