2017 Community Bankers for Compliance ProgramDesigned to provide the tools needed to effectively structure and manage an in-bank compliance program. |
CBA is proud to announce the new 2017 Community Bankers for Compliance Program (CBC), designed to provide many of the tools you need to structure and manage an in-bank compliance program. Presented by Young & Associates, Inc., the CBC Program is the most successful and longest running compliance training program in the country and provides up-to-date information on compliance issues and developments in bank regulations, as well as proven techniques for maintaining your in-bank compliance program. In addition, it provides a forum where those responsible for regulatory compliance can discuss issues and exchange ideas with other community bankers.
Membership to the CBC Program consists of the following:

We realize that job responsibilities change quite frequently within some banks, and for this reason, membership is granted to banks, not individual bank employees. This enables you to send your bank’s compliance officer, as well as an additional representative as the topics apply to the various areas of the bank. By sending these representatives to the sessions that matter most to them, you are greatly enhancing the bank’s ability to implement compliance throughout the bank.Who Should Attend The focus of the CBC is on regulatory compliance. It is essential that your bank’s compliance officer attend. But because regulatory compliance should be approached from a team perspective, many banks find it extremely beneficial to send additional employees to sessions on topics that relate directly to their positions in the bank. These employees typically come from the customer service, lending, or operations departments in the bank. To support this team effort, the CBC has been priced to enable your bank to send additional employees at a substantial savings. |
2017 Community Bankers for Compliance ProgramRegulatory ApprovalThe Community Bankers for Compliance Program has passed the test of regulatory scrutiny. After the original program was developed in other states, the regulatory agencies recognized the increased understanding and ability to deal with regulatory issues by those bankers who were members. Since then, the program has received approval from the regulatory agencies not only for its comprehensiveness, but also for its practicality. Compliance Manuals When you attend a seminar, you want to focus on the material being presented. It is often too difficult, though, to listen to a speaker and write detailed notes at the same time. For this reason, the CBC Program manuals are written in full narrative. This also enables the banker to take the materials to the bank as a reference to the regulations and as a training manual for other employees. Risk Management The CBC is a proven method to reduce the risk of regulatory actions against your bank for reasons such as failure to establish a valid compliance management program, failure to establish compliance policies, failure to provide adequate compliance training, and failure to monitor compliance internally. In addition, with each change in regulatory compliance regulations, there is an increased risk of inadvertent compliance errors. The CBC reduces the possibility that these errors will occur because your employees will have a greater understanding of the regulatory requirements. Practical Solutions Most community banks do not have the time or money to build elaborate compliance systems, but there is a solution. The CBC Program will provide practical, user-friendly compliance techniques and explain how they can be related to all areas of compliance. For example, setting up compliance files, developing training programs, responding to the examinations, and resolving disputes are among the areas that are reviewed. Participant Interaction The CBC Program is designed to assist members in getting timely answers to their questions as well as testing
techniques before implementation in the bank. The program provides a forum where each bank can be
an active participant by asking questions and bringing concerns and compliance techniques for review by the
group. This peer evaluation and two-way flow of information increases understanding and improves the
bank’s effort toward a viable compliance program.
