A Profitability-Enhancing Workshop

December 4, 2008
San Francisco

See Below for Viewable and Printable Workshop Presentations and Handouts

This truly has been a "Perfect Storm" for the financial services industry. Among many lessons learned in just the past few months is the relevance of Capital and Liquidity and their importance in these most difficult times. In fact, its clear that these two CAMELS components are key to survival.

We have assembled a panel of experts to discuss how community bankers can survive in these perilous times. Our panel will cover:

Liquidity and funds management from the perspective of the FDIC.
Wholesale funding sources that have become important in today's economy.
Key sources of funding for your Contingency Funding Plan (will discuss sample CFP as well).
How community banks will access the capital markets for the equity they need to grow in the coming years.

Intended Audience

Our Liquidity Management Workshop is designed for CEOs and CFOs seeking ideas to enhance both liquidity and profitability as we head into 2009.

Workshop Location

Bank of America Building
The Board Room – 51st Floor
555 California Street
San Francisco, CA
