Analytical Tools - Use of Financial Statement Analytical Procedures (APs) Designed to Focus on Bank Areas of Concern

Recorded Session
90 Minutes

Bank financial statements can be overwhelming. This 90-minute bank financial statement analysis training shows how analytical procedures help directors, auditors, regulators and others find unusual transactions, events, accounting or business changes and misstatements.

It covers historical trend analysis using dollar, percentage and common-size analysis of the balance sheet and income statement. You'll then work through profitability, capital, asset quality, liquidity and productivity ratios, from return on average assets and net interest margin to net charge-offs and the efficiency ratio, with calculations and interpretation.

The session also covers actual vs. forecast comparisons, statement interrelationships and industry statistics. Two related tools, the UBHCPR and key indicators, are covered in other webinars.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

Reviewers need to turn large amounts of data into focused, usable insight that highlights unexpected changes. These simple ratios and comparisons give you that focus, and the techniques can be used right away by anyone who reviews bank financial statements.

This session suits financial analysts, directors, managers, bank officers, controllers, treasurers, internal and external auditors, compliance officers, risk managers, general counsel, regulators and investors.
