Overview

A bank is only as strong as the leadership guiding it, which is why Bank Director established the Bank Board Forum, where like-minded leaders from across the nation convene to discuss the state of our industry and develop strategies to strengthen the entire board and bank. In an ever-changing financial industry, the health of your institution starts at the top, and this year’s Forum tackles topics related to all areas of a bank’s board and committees, ensuring you have the tools to grow stronger through these uncertain times.

To provide the most comprehensive and valuable experience, the Bank Board Forum now includes specialized tracks to address the specific needs of Audit & Risk, Compensation & Talent and Governance & Strategy focused leaders, ensuring that every attendee not only reaps the benefits of our expert-led Main Stage sessions but can also customize their conference experience to best suit their individual and their bank’s specific needs.

The Bank Board Forum covers topics around: 

• Audit & Risk Challenges                     • Implementing a Cybersecurity Strategy
• Governance Insights                          • The Impact of Technology on the Industry
• Emerging Industry Headwinds           • Growth Opportunities for Your Bank
• The Latest Compensation Trends      • Competitive Threats & Opportunities
• Talent & Retention Best Practices      • Managing Regulatory Expectations

“This is an excellent forum especially to introduce new CEOs, chairs or lead directors to fresh ideas and connections. The peer interactions both differentiate this from other conferences and add great value.”
