National Banking School

Celebrating its 30th year, this annual 5-day National Banking School covers every major aspect of bank operations and accounting using case studies, classroom discussion and a simulated bank environment.

You and your in-classroom team will use the Stanford Bank Game, a computer-assisted, interactive software tool that enables you to put your knowledge into practice and perfect real-world strategies by operating your own simulated bank. You’ll make critical management decisions about the Regulatory Environment, the Asset Portfolio, the Liabilities Portfolio, the Securities Portfolio and more. (Registrants receive a game manual prior to the program.)  

Hot Topics Include:

• Credit Issues / Accounting for ALLL
• The $700B Question / Changes to the Regulatory Environment
• Fair Value Matters
• Business Combinations
• International Accounting Standards
• SEC Observations
• Goodwill and Impairment Issues
• Securitization/Consolidation Issues – FAS 140R and FIN 46R
• Tax Implications for Bank Value

Attendance at this Banking School is limited to 50 participants to allow for greater interaction and the in-class simulation.  Register early to ensure your spot.

Who Should Attend:
CPAs with all levels of experience, Financial Officers from banks and regulators, mid and senior-level staff of financial institutions, auditors.
