THE REGULATORY TREND • Credit Union’s need to take interest rate risk modeling seriously – FINANCIAL EXAMINERS • Understand ALM and IRR • Know your risk measurement methods • Be able to identify and interpret your risk positions • Be ready and willing to make risk-based management decisions
RISK BASED DECISION MAKING RISK BASED DECISION MAKING PROCESS • Three Part Process • Identify & understand your risk exposure • Develop economic expectations • Determine the best strategy based on 1) risk exposure and 2) expectations
RISK BASED DECISION MAKING 1) Analyze Risk and Identify Trends • IRR Exposure rising or falling • Drivers of risk • Changes to the balance sheet • Where did growth/contraction occur • Changes in interest rates • Rates rising or falling
RISK BASED DECISION MAKING 2) Develop economic expectations • Key questions: • Is the economy growing or contracting • What is happening to…. • Unemployment • Consumer Confidence • Consumer Spending • Inflation
RISK BASED DECISION MAKING 3) Choosing the best course of action • Look for balance – Evaluate investment and loan portfolios together, not separately • Goal is to manage risk, not to avoid it! • Items to consider: • Where are interest rates going • How is the balance sheet positioned • How do you want the balance sheet positioned • What products if added will achieve your desired goal
IDENTIFY AND UNDERSTAND RISK EXPOSURE Risk exposure is viewed as High Risk driven by investment and real estate loan portfolios • Investments: 42% of assets; 57% of risk • RE loans: 19% of assets; 33% of risk • Combined: 61% of assets; 90% of risk Risk increased due to: • Deployment of ~$10 million of cash into investments and RE loans ($7.4mm into investments and $1.9mm into RE loans)
ECONOMIC EXPECTATIONS • The Federal Reserve’s Plan • Current policy “at least through 2015” • Taper QE by year-end 2013…. • - Now possibly 2014…… • Look at raising rates when: • 1) Unemployment below 6.5% • 2) Inflation above 2.5% • Expect Fed Funds increase in late 2015 or early 2016

IMPACT OF RECENT RATE INCREASE • Steepening of the yield curve has not helped credit unions • Mortgage rates moved higher • Consumer loan rates unchanged • Long-term risk increased • NEV Volatility increased • Intrinsic values declined • Prepayments slowed • Callables extended
ECONOMIC EXPECTATIONS • • 2013-2014 Economic Expectations • Light to Moderate Growth • 2013 GDP expected to be near 2%; rising to around 2.5%-2.7% in 2014 • Inflation remains low; CPI expected to rise 2% for 2013 after an increase of 1.7% in 2012 • Unemployment to continue falling slightly through 2013…..

ECONOMIC EXPECTATIONS • Interest Rate Expectations • Continued steepening of the yield curve as the market awaits end of QE3 • Short-term rates to remain low into 2014 • Long-term interest rates to continue rising Source: Kiplinger, BLS, Barclays LLC
CHOOSING THE BEST OPTION • Our Example: • Risk has increased due to growth in long-term first mortgages combined with increases in holdings of long-term fixed rate MBS • Rates likely to continue rising over the next 12-24 months with: • Long-term rates rising now • Short-term rates rising in 18-24 months
CHOOSING THE BEST OPTION Big picture ALM goal: Be able to re-deploy assets in 12-24 months or have adjustable rate products that can roll up the curve while fixing funding costs Consider the following: • Auto loans • Indirect networks • Unsecured/credit card loans • Floating rate or S-T Inv. over L-T fixed • Limit extension risk • Shorter-term or balloon mortgages over long-term fixed mortgages • Limit extension risk • HELOCs • Term borrowings over term deposits
GETTING READY FOR THE FUTURE • ALM and IRR is expected to remain at the regulatory forefront • Interest rate risk and concentration risk has been increasing in the credit union industry over the past few years • Credit Union’s will continue to be pushed towards incorporating ALM and IRR into the decision making process
GETTING READY FOR THE FUTURE • Make Risk Based Decisions • Understand your risk • Identify trend in overall risk levels • Identify changes in the balance sheet • Isolate the key risk drivers • Identify changes in interest rates • Think about the future • Economic & interest rate expectations • Actively manage the balance sheet • Choose products that fit your balance sheet based on risk & return
GETTING READY FOR THE FUTURE AND REMEMBER….. ….DOCUMENT EVERYTHING!!!!!!!
