  Welcome / Opening Remarks
9:00 am - 10:00 am
  Commercial Real Estate
With Samuel Gullerud, Special Assistant to the Regional Director

It’s well-documented that banking is one of the most regulated industries. Although fulfilling director responsibilities can be daunting, the FDIC is in the business of curating strong board members. This presentation discusses the regulatory landscape, expectations for board oversight, and strategies to ensure directors are equipped for success.

10:00 am - 10:45 am
  Payments Fraud
With Lloyd McIntyre, Fraud Examination Specialist

The Financial Crimes presentation will cover emerging fraud schemes that financial institutions are facing every day, including check fraud, authorized push payment fraud, and business email compromise scams. Directors and senior managers will takeaway “knowledge nuggets” that can immediately mitigate risk and strengthen controls to protect their financial institution, customers, and community.

10:45 am - 11:00 am

11:00 am - 12:00 pm

This session will provide attendees with an overview of national, state, and local economic conditions by analyzing the latest trends in sectors such as labor, housing, and commercial real estate.

12:00 pm - 1:15 pm
