Education sessions over the two days covered a tabletop simulation, risks credit unions could face in 2023, steps credit unions can take to effectively manage crisis communications and the fundamentals of payment risks.
“Our goal with this year’s Risk Management Conference was to try to cover the variety of risks that credit unions could face throughout the year,” said Lori Gall, chief risk officer for Vizo Financial. “We wanted to ensure that we were offering a vast selection of topics on the risk spectrum – from payment risks to IT and cybersecurity risks, and from crisis communication to partnering with law enforcement. We know that attendees were presented with valuable information that they can take back to their credit unions and implement in 2023 and beyond.”
