The Indiana Bankers Association Mega Conference is the largest state banker association meeting in the country! Serving as our preeminent educational event, this conference traditionally attracts 900+ bankers from around the state and will again be held at the Indiana Convention Center. This is your best opportunity to display your products and services to the Indiana banking community! We also have many opportunities for sponsorship, program book advertising and mobile app banner ads to increase your visibility at this year’s event.
This two-day program is designed for BSA professionals who are competent in the core requirements of Bank Secrecy Act rules. It will provide an advanced level of training on the
challenges of developing and managing an effective BSA program. Because this session is
virtual, it will be mostly lecture; however, all attendees will be encouraged to participate
where they can. Attendees are asked to find a quiet location to limit background noise.
The curriculum will extensively cover Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs), dedicating ample
time to this area, as SARs now encompass a broader range of topics than in the past.
Attendees are encouraged to share "war stories" related to their experiences with SAR filings
while gaining useful information from the presenters. Real-life BSA scenarios will also be
explored through examples, and attendees will be asked to provide unique “war stories” prior
to the session. Names and other identifying information will be omitted. These stories will be
useful to everyone, and active contributions will improve the quality of the presentation.
This school will include the updated sections of the BSA Exam Manual published over the
last couple of years. While many of the new sections will have minimal impact on your bank,
it is important for BSA officers to be aware of them. We will also highlight other portions of
the Exam Manual as a basis for discussion on specific areas of BSA compliance, including
some aspects of cryptocurrency, which is not currently covered in the BSA Exam Manual.
If you are a lender, are you ready to improve your game? If you manage or review commercial relationships, what are the key drivers of borrower performance after the loan has been closed?
This advanced, two-day course has the answers, with a focus on effective initial structuring and subsequent monitoring of commercial lending relationships. It goes beyond the basics of financial analysis and portfolio management to provide experienced bankers the advanced tools to influence credit quality and profitability. We explore critical quantitative factors such as the role of sales growth in the financial performance of the borrower, as well as qualitative issues of industry, market and management risks.
Exhibits and sponsorships will be available in January with conference sessions and registration available in March!
This program will explore the role played by the Board of high performing banks. High performing banks are defined as producing strong returns for their shareholders. These effective boards are characterized by being active, but not meddling. These boards allow management to run the bank on a day-to-day basis, while holding management accountable. The bank’s best opportunity for success occurs when the board clearly sets the strategic direction of the bank.
