Description
This brand new webinar will discuss deposit pricing strategies and the potential impact of rising short term rates on interest rate risk. Register today!
Background
The latest communications from the Federal Reserve continue to indicate that the committee intends to raise overnight rates in 2015. With loan demand also returning, financial institutions will have to start thinking about their deposit pricing strategies for the first time in years. Should future growth be funded with deposit growth, borrowings, or cash flows from the bond portfolio? We will discuss these questions in depth in this session, as well as look at what rising short term rates might mean in terms of interest rate risk.
