  10. Balance Sheet Exposure of LICUs • LICU slightly better positioned for rising interest rates • ST margin shortfalls will reverse quickly for conservative shops • Greater share pricing flexibility NFCDCU Baltimore 2013

  11. Operational Risk New Risks Require Enhanced Internal Controls Old Risks require strong controls • Fraud losses cost the industry the most of all the failures (sometimes several multiples of reported assets) • Internal controls, risk mitigation, and oversight • No substitution for controls • Multiple review levels can mitigate but not replace • Independence • Strong effective audit process • Internal audits • Oversight NFCDCU Baltimore 2013

Operational Risks – Fraud Hot Spots • Poor Accounting Controls/Un-reconciled Books • Clean Records and Effectively Monitoring Financial Activity • Unrecorded shares • Segregate activity/access control • Monitor bank activity • Fictitious and Fraudulent Loans • New loans, Charge off loans, Due Dates, Subsidiary vs Control Account. • Un-cleared Overdrafts • Bank Reconcilements, general ledger reviews, access controls/override reports • Dormant/inactive share accounts • Timely monitoring and clearing inactive accounts • Control reports • False Expenditures • Unsupported expenditures • Budget/financial statement monitoring NFCDCU Baltimore 2013

  13. Risk Management is Key Good Risk Management fosters vigilance in times of calm and instills discipline in times of crisis. Dr. Michael Ong 10 DO’s • Commitment to make tough choices. • Forward looking strategy. • Well developed and integrated risk management. • Balanced appetite for risk (like your life depended on it). • Incentives aligned with sustainable risk levels (Taking a long term strategic view). • Continuous monitoring and strong comprehensive reporting regime (Good, Bad or Ugly). • Strong control environment. • Balanced portfolio and portfolio strategy. • Equal weight to the downside risks in the decision making process. • Optimal capital deployment (Scaled to level of risk and no over-reliance). 10 Don’t’s Lack of commitment to risk management. Disengaged leadership. Concentrated organizational power. Inconsistent or weak process for complexity or risk level. Failure to adhere to policies and procedures. Appetite “creep” (Don’t rationalize – make the touch decision). “Silver Bullets” and “Shiny Objects” (aka shortcuts). Disproportionate yields = unidentified risk (there are no hidden secrets if you have not identified the risk – stop until you can see, measure and control it) A state of denial (The truth of the matter is that you always know the right thing to do. The hard part is doing it. -Norman Schwarzkopf ) Misaligned incentives (poorly designed pay and incentive plans Examination 2013: What to Expect
