Security Officer Reports to the Board:

Timing, Contents & Requirements

(90-minute webinar – available live or on-demand)

Tuesday, December 7, 2021

12:00 PM Pacific       1:00 PM Mountain

2:00 PM Central   3:00 PM Eastern

The security officer has a big job.  One of the responsibilities is reporting to the board at least annually – if not more often.  Learn what should be presented, how it should be communicated, and how to mitigate liability from security issues.  This webinar will provide the tools, tips, and knowledge security officers need. 

AFTER THIS WEBINAR YOU’LL BE ABLE TO:

• Report foreseeable events that could bring liability against the board
• Identify information that should be reported to the board annually
• Present major problems to the board with limited time
• Explain why the security officer/risk management department should report to the board in person
• Understand what is included in the security function
• Keep records that will make board reporting easier

WEBINAR DETAILS

The implementing regulations of the Bank Protection Act require the security officer to report annually to the board on the “implementation, administration, and effectiveness of the security program.”  As banks downsize or right-size, danger in the security area increases.  Learn how to educate your board on these issues with skill and diplomacy. 

This webinar will review best practices relating to training, inspections, and foreseeable events that should be reported to the board.  Learn how the annual written report should be prepared, presented, and reported.  Security officers and board members will garner valuable resources that can provide statistics, facts, and information to reduce liability.

Many financial institutions are satisfied if regulators don’t take issue with the board report or the security program.  However, don’t wait for a lawsuit against the security officer, management, and the board (both jointly and individually) to discover your report was missing key items.  Information that could help during litigation is very different than what regulators examine for compliance.  Be aware that the report is not just for the board – a much larger audience will review it if something goes wrong.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This informative session was designed for auditors, security officers, risk management staff, senior management, and board members responsible for the security function.
