NAFCU’s Risk Management Seminar kicks off today in Denver

WASHINGTON, DC (August 8, 2016) — Credit union professionals from across the country are gathering today to kick off the National Association of Federal Credit Unions (NAFCURisk Management Seminar at the Grand Hyatt Denver, where attendees will learn and share risk management insights they can apply to their institutions’ plans and processes for managing internal and external risks. The seminar runs through Wednesday, Aug. 10.

“Recent years have seen an explosion in risks, particularly within the realm of cyber- and data security, so the need for effective enterprise risk management has never been greater,” said NAFCU Executive Vice President and COO Anthony Demangone. “This week’s seminar is the perfect opportunity for industry professionals to learn from regulators, credit union partners and peers about the risks to their credit unions and the fundamentals of creating an ERM program that works for their institutions.”

Seminar speakers include experts from across the industry. NAFCU’s Demangone will provide a welcome address and NAFCU update. Today’s highlights also include a keynote presentation from Q2 Executive Vice President/CTP Adam Anderson on “Risk and the Digital Channel: Mind the Gap.” A full list of speakers is online.

Risk Management Seminar attendees can earn the designation of NAFCU Certified Risk Manager (NCRM) by taking and passing an optional exam during the seminar.
