Bank Assetpoint®/Insured Cash Sweep®, or ICS®
The second session of the Community Bank Leadership Academy took place last week in Macon. Prior to the session, attendees read the workbook for “The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership,” by John C. Maxwell, and then led through the training session by Darla Harms. Darla highlighted several of the laws and asked the attendees to apply them in success and failure to home, work, community and country.
Darla became a John Maxwell Certified Coach, Speaker and Trainer in February 2014. John Maxwell is the #1 Leadership Expert in the world, and she has cherished everything she has learned from him and the John Maxwell team. She is also certified as a Mindset Coach by The Arbinger Institute out of Salt Lake City. She is now Executive Director of The Staffing People Leadership Institute in Albany, GA. She passionately imparts everything she has learned about leadership and mindset to others who want to become better leaders.
Developed by CBA's Leadership Division, this Leadership Academy is designed specifically for the future community bank leader. This series of four sessions will benefit the attendees through individual self-discovery, personal and professional growth and career development. Each participant will walk away with their own personal development plan. Each workshop is designed to bring continuity and sustainable accomplishments which will allow each future bank leader to build positive influence, team connections and ongoing learning resources. The Academy aims to support Georgia's community banks in the development of its people so that these bankers will become impactful leaders of influence - for the bank, themselves and their communities. Each participant who consecutively attends all four sessions in a calendar year will receive a Certificate of Completion.
Session III of the Academy will take place in July and will be led by Darla. The session will cover “The Anatomy of Peace: Resolving the Heart of Conflict,” by The Arbinger Institute. To learn more about the Academy, please click here.
We appreciate last week’s lunch and dinner sponsor, Point to Point Environmental. Mark Faas joined the group for lunch on Wednesday.

Scenes from the Leadership Academy in Macon
OCC: CECL Standard Poses Potential Risks
The implementation of the Current Expected Credit Loss standard warrants awareness among bankers and examiners and could develop into a key risk, the OCC said. In its latest Semiannual Risk Perspective, the OCC said CECL “may pose operational and strategic risk to some banks when measuring and assessing the collectability of financial assets.” The agency also cited credit quality, the increasing complex operating environment, BSA/AML compliance, and interest rate risk.

Cotton Prices Tumble Through Support as Trade Uncertainties Mount
New crop December futures had solid support at 72 cents. Having earlier reached the 77-cent area, prices had begun to decline in mid-April but the 72 cent area was expected to hold and provide a safety net for producers looking for prices to eventually rebound and provide additional pricing opportunities. However, support did not hold due to the on-going US-China trade dispute. Support was expected to hold and prices show some recovery provided that positive progress be made in the trade dispute.
Data shows the pace of new sales has fallen off. Shipments of previous sales has trended up. Prices will continue to be impacted by the trade situation and the pace of sales and shipments. Having already fallen to the mid to upper 60’s, further downside is possible but should be relatively limited. Any recovery will also depend on the US crop situation. Read the full article.

Early Exposure to Banking May Influence Life-Long Financial Health
Growing up in a community with or without banks has a long-term effect on how you build and manage credit, according to a new study. The research shows individuals who grow up in what are essentially 'financial deserts' are slow to apply for credit and as adults have lower credit scores and more delinquent accounts.
To understand why early exposure affects consumer credit behavior, researchers also looked at data on mandated financial literacy training in high schools across different states. Brown says this helped them determine that formative exposure to financial markets improves financial literacy and trust in financial institutions. Read the full article.

Take Steps Against Fraudulent Instruction
One increasing claim trend among financial institutions is a form of social engineering referred to as fraudulent instructions. In a bank’s case, fraudulent instruction occurs when an employee is tricked into transferring money from a customer’s account to somewhere else because a fraudster steals the customer’s identity and convinces the bank through emails or phone calls to move the funds. With the benefit of seeing multiple claim scenarios, Traveler's is sharing some of the best practices that can be used to prevent fraudsters from making your bank a victim. Read the full article.

Elevating the Bank Customer Experience
The guiding tenet of cultivating an exceptional customer experience is that the customer is the heart of the business. In focusing on that essential principle, financial institutions can lose sight of the broader perspective that customer experience is not limited to the interactions with customer service staff, but also includes any other activities associated with being a customer of an organization. As a result, your bank needs a complete and transparent understanding of the customer’s needs and experiences across each touch point with the business. One thing is certain, customer experience is the defining business success factor, now and in years to come. Read the full article. Guest article from CBA Associate Member Franklin Madison.

Protecting Your Institution from Check Fraud: Three Trends to be Aware Of
While you probably may not have written a check in a while, businesses still rely on checks as one of their top forms of payment and are a lucrative source for check fraud. Those accounts tend to have more money and/or higher limits than personal accounts. There is also usually more than one signee assigned to those accounts, making them more susceptible to fraud. Additionally, the access to new technology to create realistic counterfeit checks continues to make check fraud one of the largest forms of fraud in the world. Read the full article. Guest article from CBA Associate Member Abrigo.
