Curriculum

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), enacted last week, delivers emergency assistance to businesses, financial institutions, and individuals affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Among other things, the CARES Act: 

  • Expands Small Business Administration (SBA) Section 7(a)lending opportunities through the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP);  
  • Delays compliance with current expected credit losses methodology for estimating allowances for credit losses (CECL);
  • Provides limited relief for institutions with respect to troubled debt restructurings (TDRs);
  • Temporarily reduces the Community Bank Leverage Ratio (CBLR);
  • Reinstates the FDIC Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (TLGP); and 
  • Enables the Federal Reserve and the Treasury Department to develop additional credit and liquidity programs. 

 

This timely and crucial banking webinar will cover: 

  • Opportunities for banks to capitalize on provisions of the PPP; and 
  • Key provisions of the CARES Act discussed above and related areas of interest for financial institutions. 

 

This banking webinar is appropriate for:

  • Chief credit officers, lending executives, directors, and other senior management; 
  • In-house counsel and regulatory compliance staff; and
  • Banks partnering with financial technology (fintech) companies.
