The National Credit Union Administration will host a webinar on April 4 on liquidity risk management.

Registration for the Liquidity Risk Management webinar is now open. The webinar is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. Eastern and run approximately 60 minutes. On January 17, 2024, the NCUA released an advisory to credit unions on the importance of having a strong liquidity management framework given the growing levels of liquidity stress over the last few quarters. This webinar will discuss the key principles highlighted in that advisory, including:

• Managing and forecasting cash flows under normal operating and stressed conditions.

• Controlling asset composition such as lending quality and volume, including pricing, limits for lending personnel and loan types, and originating loans eligible for future sale.

• Structuring liabilities to be congruent with asset growth.

• Developing governance and monitoring structures suitable for the credit union’s size, complexity, and financial condition.

• Maintaining diversified liquidity sources that can be accessed in various situations. This funding diversity includes having access to at least one contingent federal liquidity source, like the Federal Reserve’s Discount Window or the Central Liquidity Facility.

The webinar will be close captioned, and there is no charge. Participants will be able to log in and view the event on their computers or mobile devices using the registration link. They should allow pop-ups from this website.

Participants can submit questions in advance by emailing WebinarQuestions@ncua.gov. The email’s subject line should read, “Liquidity Risk Management.” Please email technical questions about accessing the webinar to either uccwebinar@ncua.gov or uccsupport@ncua.gov.

This webinar will be archived on the NCUA’s Learning Management System following the live event. A Learning Management System account is required to view the archived webinar, and it also provides access to the NCUA’s other training and educational materials.
