Reducing risk with clear insight

Community banks face an increasingly complex commercial and regulatory environment driving business risk: What will be the effects of CECL? How do banks transition away from LIBOR? How do banks remain competitive with record-low interest rates? How can banks stay compliant with anti-money laundering regulations? Have banks implemented Enterprise Risk Management frameworks? Are banks managing Model Risk? More than ever, banks need to stay agile, and not just comply with market regulations and market expectations, but get ahead of them. Staying ahead of complexity and market expectations can drive performance and reduce costs ahead of the industry.

Nathan advised a mid-sized bank from end-to-end in transitioning to CECL. From procuring and testing appropriate accounting software, to analyzing portfolio risk pools, and updating accounting processes, Nathan helped them develop a comprehensive CECL solution. The bank is now compliant with the CECL standard and has developed deeper insights into its loan portfolio.

Nathan advised a community bank on both validating its existing incurred loss allowance model and transitioning to CECL. Nathan provided the bank with guidance on improving the robustness of its model, establishing reasonable assumptions, and establishing better data governance processes. The bank has referred Nathan to its auditor for supporting other community banks in model validation and regulatory compliance.
