Bank directors are frequently required to adopt bank policies regarding compliance issues, approve management actions in lending and operations, as well as assume a multitude of legal responsibilities as directors without the benefit of training in these areas. At each board meeting, directors are faced with a stack of detailed reports intended to inform them of the bank's position or progress in a broad range of areas. Without an understanding of the importance each report and issue plays on the condition of the institution and its effect on bank operations, it is more difficult for the director to understand management decisions and support recommendations. The expertise a director brings to the board can be very valuable in evaluating tough strategic decisions. An overview of compliance regs and information management on a level designed to give them only what they want to know will provide "CPR" for your regular board meetings!
