Compliance

Community Bankers for Compliance Series (Available In-Person and Virtual) February 11, 2025; May 13, 2025; August 5, 2025; November 18, 2025
Indiana Bankers Association (IBA) is pleased to sponsor the annual Community Bankers for Compliance Program (CBC). The CBC Program is the most successful and longest running compliance training program in the country. The CBC Program will provide your bank with up-to-date information on the ever-changing bank regulations, as well as guidance for structuring and 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. 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.

Compliance Officer Forum - January 28,2025; May 20, 2025; October 7, 2025
The IBA Compliance Forum provides a platform and opportunity for Compliance Officers, Internal Auditors and other risk managers to exchange ideas freely, discuss important issues, and explore potential solutions with peers. Compliance Officers, compliance managers, risk professionals and auditors tasked with testing compliance requirements are the target audience for this forum. Business line management would also benefit from the forum.

Opening New Accounts Documentation and Compliance - March 13, 2025
Managing risk is the #1 priority for all financial institutions, starting at the new account desk. If a criminal cannot open a bank account, they cannot negotiate a stolen check, embezzle from their employer, or steal from your organization and community. Well trained new account personnel and universal bankers who recognize and stop attempted fraudulent activity are the first lines of defense in protecting a financial institution from fraudsters. Trust and business accounts continue to grow in popularity and complexity - LLCs owned by Revocable Trusts and businesses owned by other businesses… the need for ongoing compliance training is paramount to maintain diligence and update processes and procedures. The session answers many of the complicated questions customers and employees ask. The 200+ page detailed manual, included in the registration and customized to Indiana State law, has become an invaluable resource for banks across the state.

Internal Audit School - December 9 & 10, 2025

Join Indiana Bankers Association and Young & Associates, Inc. for the 2025 Community Bankers for Compliance Schools. Each 2-day school, will lay the cornerstone for community bankers to build and manage an in-bank compliance program. These three compliance schools are often attended by individuals from multiple departments in the bank. Banks can register one individual or multiple people (from customer service, lending or operations) to the school most suited for their responsibilities at the bank. While especially beneficial for compliance officers looking for an overview (or refresher) regarding these regulations, this program has proven beneficial to those who have general oversight or must audit the compliance function of the bank. Regardless of the responsibility within the organization, attendees will learn the ins and outs of the covered regulations.
