CEO Corner: Top Bank Risks of 2018
The ABA Banking Journal in December 2017 published its “Top Bank Risks in 2018”. Included in this list were Security and Cyber Risk, Third-party Risk, Regulatory Uncertainty, Talent Management, and Lending Risks, which is back on deck for renewed attention. Since this article was issued, per the S. 2155 law, regulatory uncertainty has been tackled to some degree. The banking risk that caught my attention was the listing and supporting narrative around ‘Lending Risks’. If you have followed me over the years, I focus on lending and credit risk and the systems used to manage such risks. The following is an excerpt of the ABA Banking Journal article written by Julie Knutson on lending risks and the need for renewed attention.
Key Banking Provisions of S.2155
S.2155 was signed into law earlier this year. Most of the provisions are effective immediately while others require agency rule-making before they go into effect. The regulatory relief includes simplified capital rules and relief from Basel III, mortgage lending red tape, less intrusive reporting, and examination, and other regulatory relief. ICBA worked hard on this new law and fighting for relief from burdensome regulation.
