This virtual seminar will assist community banks in navigating the critical considerations needed to effectively implement a sound vendor management program. Content will highlight key efforts needed to ensure prudent risk management, while also achieving bottom-line results.
Community banks may outsource a service, but they cannot outsource the responsibility. In a financial environment wrought with strong enforcement actions, rising regulatory expectations, and massive data breaches, community banks must understand and manage a secure network of relationships to ensure customer data, bank transactions, business activity, and shareholders are protected.
Relationships with third-party vendors are commonplace and many provide a strategic advantage; however, the rewards aren’t without risk to financial institutions. Intense regulatory scrutiny and variations in third-party service application are challenging the risk management practices utilized by today’s community banks.
Participants will examine the vendor management lifecycle and discuss:
