Asset Liability Management (ALM) Webinars
The ALM Webinars are a series of four webinars that will be delivered over a two-week period in a two-day format. Whether you are new to credit unions and Asset/Liability Management (ALM) or you want to increase your knowledge, this online seminar series will discuss the concepts of ALM and provide tools and techniques to manage your credit union's ALM process more effectively.
The content of each series has been developed to act as a stand-alone or you can attend Series I and II consecutively. Series I will equip attendees with foundational concepts and goals of ALM as well as best practices. In Series II, attendees will explore advanced topics of ALM including interest rate risk, elements of an ALM Policy and an Investment Policy, and procedures for an Asset Liability Committee (ALCO).
Max capacity for the webinars is 20 people.
To participate in all four webinars, please register for Series I and Series II. The webinars will be recorded, and you will have access to them for 45 days.
