Cannabis Banking: Hemp, MRBs, & CBD Business Update

The cannabis industry is flourishing. Banking these thriving businesses could be good for your institution, but are there remaining questions or concerns? This webinar will take the stigma out of banking cannabis-related businesses. It will provide best practices and sample policy to enable you to prepare your own policies and procedures.

After This Webinar You’ll Be Able To:

  • Update your BSA compliance program, including risk assessment, monitoring procedures, and training
  • Address concerns lenders have regarding the unique nature of collateral for cannabis-related businesses

Webinar Details
Although marijuana remains a Schedule I substance federally, 39 states have now legalized either medical marijuana, recreational marijuana, or both – and even more states are poised to pass legislation. This has opened an entirely new, booming industry, packed with businesses who need deposit accounts, loans, and other financial products.

Could a cannabis business open an account or borrow from your financial institution? Or does confusion remain regarding the difference between marijuana- and hemp-related laws? Where do you start? What are the risks? What due diligence is required? What about all the cash transactions, CTRs, and SARs? What reporting is expected? This timely session will address these questions, differentiate between marijuana-related and hemp-related laws, and map out the landmines. Learn the facts so you can make an informed decision about whether to serve these businesses.

Who Should Attend?
This informative session is designed for branch managers, loan managers, BSA officers, compliance officers, and senior management.

Supervisory Priorities 2023

ALERT! Fallout From the March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank Failure Begins

Congress is looking for more regulation and the FDIC is considering changes to the examination process in the wake of finger pointing and second guessing. Join us for a snapshot of what we know right now and receive practical guidance to prepare for added regulatory scrutiny.

Regular examinations are a simple fact of life for all financial institutions. But does that mean you are powerless to influence the process? No! Focused preparation based on a keen understanding of the process will reduce the attendant frustrations and fear. This webinar will explain how to navigate the exam as well as the best available strategies to present your business plan and mission to examiners.

After This Webinar You’ll Be Able To:

  • Understand the focus of FDIC and FRB examinations in 2023
  • Appreciate the impact of the recent supervisory priorities
  • Employ improved examination preparation strategies
  • Access more examination resources
  • Discuss the ripple effects of the recent SVB failure from Wall Street to Main Street

Webinar Details
Watch out! Your examination team has a new set of marching orders for 2023. Big or small, well run or not, every bank will undergo regular and rhythmical examinations. Fortunately, this is an open book exam! The Risk Management Manual of Examination Policies, Commercial Bank Examination Manual, and Consumer Compliance Examination Manual offer a bird’s-eye view of the entire process. A well-prepared bank can reduce stress and increase exam efficiency, which puts you in a position to tell your story effectively rather than defending every operational decision and accounting entry from the rigors of a “safety and soundness” review.

Imagine being able to maximize the examination cycle rather than dread it. Join financial services attorney and examination veteran, David Reed, as he guides you through the new technology and examination strategies that will help you thrive during the next examination. From available resources to a review of recent examination changes, this is a must-attend webinar for every institution.

Who Should Attend?
This informative session is designed for senior executives, directors, Audit Committee members, managers, compliance staff, audit staff, and anyone involved with the examination process.

Five Reasons to Prepare for 1071 Rules: Small Business Reporting for Women & Minority Owned Businesses

Do you know the top five reasons to start preparing for implementation of the Section 1071 rules? Some say these new rules will be the biggest compliance challenge in the last 20 years. The CFPB has promised the final rules by March 31, 2023; mandatory compliance will follow in 18 months. Don’t let the long implementation deadline lull you into complacency.

After This Webinar You’ll Be Able To:

  • Understand important key dates for the final rule and mandatory compliance
  • Use the materials to develop a game plan for implementation
  • Define key terms like a “covered application,” minority-owned business, women-owned business, and “small business” proposal for a business that had $5 million or less in gross annual revenues for the preceding year
  • Distinguish which data elements may be restricted from access by certain employees
  • Explain the proposed data fields — the 22 fields range from application date to things not mandated by Dodd-Frank, such as “application recipient”
  • Compare the procedures used for small business loan applications today to the potential sweeping changes required by the rules

Webinar Details

Industry experts have predicted that the implementation of the “Section 1071 Rules” for loan applications from small businesses owned by women and minorities will be the greatest compliance challenge in the last 20 years. Here’s why you should begin planning now.

  1. The purpose of the 1071 Rules is to require data collection and accurate reporting to ensure that all borrowers receive fair treatment. This data will be available to regulators and community groups. What will it reveal about your financial institution?
  2. There is no “model” application form for small business loans. What changes will be required to collect the required information? Does your current loan application system have the capacity to capture the required information?
  3. Early preparation and planning can save time, money, and headaches. What data should be included in a “gap analysis” to determine the scope of impact?
  4. Effective training will play a critical role in the successful implementation of the new rules.
  5. What should senior management and the board understand about the proposed rules?

Who Should Attend?
This informative session is designed for senior management, directors, chief credit officers, commercial lenders, loan administration staff, compliance officers, risk managers, and fair lending officers.

Take-Away Toolkit

  • Template for a “gap analysis” to quantify the current loan process, source documentation, volume numbers (applications vs. originations for small business applications), and potential fair lending red flags for underwriting, pricing, fees, and conditional requests
  • Template for a training plan; experts recommend beginning in the first quarter of 2023
  • CFPB resources for the 1071 rules
  • Employee training log
  • Interactive quiz
  • PDF of slides and speaker’s contact info for follow-up questions
  • Attendance certificate provided to self-report CE credits

Webinar Details
There have been many changes in our country over the last couple of years. In what seems to be an increasingly violent world, how can we protect ourselves? Despite robbery being one of the most feared crimes for the banking industry, training is often lacking and uninspired. This session will go beyond basic robbery training to focus on prevention and recognizing weaknesses that can cause vulnerability. It will reveal the facts about robbery, address current trends, and provide step-by-step guidelines for effective prevention, safe response, and managing the aftereffects.

Every employee can play a role in prevention, and it is critical that all personnel are prepared and trained in the safest response methods. Attendees will learn various methods used by crooks, how their observations of the event can be valuable, and essential actions to take following a robbery.

Who Should Attend?
This must-attend webinar will benefit all financial institution employees.
