Looking Backwards to See Into the Future Mark Zinder, CEO, Mark Zinder and Associates, Nashville, TN It s been around six years since the financial crisis, yet pessimism persists. Budget crises, long-term unemployment, volatile foreign markets bad news has become the new normal. No wonder polls show that most Americans believe we re still in recession and investors are sitting on cash, too afraid to get back in the market. Have we been blinded by it all? Are we extrapolating the present? The history books are full of examples of previous technology revolutions: the industrial revolution, the railroad revolution, electrification, mass production, and most recently, the information revolution. Have we failed to see that there is a new engine of growth in its very early stages? The world is changing technology is accelerating fortunes are being made. Now is the time to ask yourself, What Happens Next? 10:15 a.m. Break Coffee sponsored by Kraft CPAs PLLC, Nashville, TN 10:45 a.m. General Session #2 Getting Back to the Basics David Kemp, President, Bankers Management, Inc, McDonough, GA In this session, David Kemp will focus on the fundamentals of successful lending, such as Who is the borrower? Identifying the actual owners of assets and the primary source of revenue are keys to the loan process. A strong loan policy is required as the initial building block but must be supported by an equally strong credit culture. The credit culture ingrains credit quality into the DNA of the bank. Kemp will also discuss collateral considerations to the role of the Guarantor. Noon Lunch Dessert sponsored by Southeastern Commercial Finance, LLC, Memphis, TN 12:45 p.m. Luncheon Speaker Brace for Impact The Miracle on the Hudson Dave Sanderson, Managing Partner/Author/Speaker, Dave Sanderson Speaks Enterprises, Charlotte, NC When US Airways Flight 1549, or The Miracle on the Hudson, ditched into the Hudson River on January 15, 2009, David Sanderson knew he was exactly where he was supposed to be. The last passenger off the back of the plane on that fateful day, he was largely responsible for the well-being and safety of others, risking his own life in frigid water to help other passengers off the plane. Despite the hazards to himself, Sanderson thought only of helping others and emerged from the wreckage with a mission: to encourage others to do the right thing. That experience profoundly changed his life and today, he travels the globe sharing his inspirational and motivational leadership messages to help people make a difference in how they do business and live their lives.
1:45 p.m. Workshop I The Role of Collateral in the Lending Decision David Kemp, President, Bankers Management, Inc, McDonough, GA Banks are faced with the considerable burden of understanding the value of collateral as loan transactions are structured. The benefit of this valuation process not only mitigates the risk to the bank, but satisfies the regulatory community requirement for adequate controls. Bankers have an array of choices for the level of collateral control, ranging from borrowing based certificates to lock lax payments. Commercial Real Estate (CRE) lending requires complete understanding of the valuation process, from cap rates to appraisal management programs. This valuation process also extends to our management of classified loans to the disposition of OREO property. 3:00 p.m. Coffee Break Workshop II Making Cents Out of Your Farmers Financials Freddie Barnard, Ph.D., Professor in Agricultural Economics, Purdue University, West Layfayette, IN All too often, we see our agricultural customers showing a big loss on their tax returns, but they assure you as the banker that the operation is doing well. Dr. Freddie Barnard will equip lenders with the tools and information necessary to make the key adjustments to better depict your borrower s financial position and make more informed credit decisions. Dr. Barnard stated, It isn t uncommon to see the difference between cash net farm income and accrual-adjusted net farm income to be more than 60 percent. Workshop III Interest Rate and Liquidity Risk Management R. Jason Caskey, CPA, Shareholder and Financial Services Practice Leader, Elliott Davis Decosimo, LLC, Columbia, SC; and Michael Koupal, CPA, Senior Manager, Elliott Davis Decosimo, LLC, Charlotte, NC In this presentation, Jason Caskey and Michael Koupal will present a general discussion on interest rate risk and liquidity risk management, including an overall review of the related regulatory guidance, best practices, and what auditors and regulators will look for in your next internal audit/validation. 3:20 p.m. Workshop IV (Workshop I Repeated) The Role of Collateral in the Lending Decision David Kemp, President, Bankers Management, Inc, McDonough, GA Workshop V Commercial Real Estate Lending (CRE).Caution Ahead! John Barrickman, President, New Horizons Financial Group, LLC, Amelia Island, FL Community banks are aggressively growing CRE lending again. The regulators have urged caution including issuing an Interagency Statement on Prudent Risk Management for Commercial Real Estate Lending (December 2015) and the OCC s Semiannual Risk Assessment (Spring 2016). Specific concerns include: Historically low capitalization rates and rising property values Easing underwriting standards less restrictive loan covenants extended maturities longer interest only periods limited guaranty requirements Greater number of underwriting exceptions Insufficient monitoring of market conditions
3:20 p.m. Workshop V (continued) In this session, Barrickman s focus is on: Risk management processes required to monitor and manage the increasing risk in CRE lending The implications of exceeding the regulatory guidance on concentrations in CRE, i.e. 100/300 percent of capital The impact of the High Volatility CRE (HVCRE) classification on the profitability of CRE construction lending The importance of global cash flow in assessing CRE borrower creditworthiness Stress testing the CRE portfolio it is much more than interest rates The role of participations in CRE lending Workshop VI Tennessee Housing Market Forecast Edsel Charles, Chairman, MarketGraphics Research Group, Inc, Franklin, TN Join Edsel Charles as he covers the new home forecast for Knoxville, Nashville, Chattanooga, and Memphis. He will address the next recession and project both the timing and the depth, as well as the present state of the U.S. housing market and will look at the present rental market and his thoughts about whether or not that market will hold up. Charles will discuss his interest rate forecast and how that will affect housing and how to see lending for homes and lots in a safer way that actually is better for the industry. 5 6 p.m. Reception Sponsored by Financial Products and Services, Inc.

9:45 a.m. General Session #4 The Lending Cycle Is It Different This time? John Barrickman, President, New Horizons Financial Group, LLC, Amelia Island, FL The economy continues a slow recovery. Loan demand has been solid but not spectacular. After the credit crisis, community banks tightened underwriting standards and shifted their lending focus from commercial real estate lending to traditional C&I lending. The pressure for earnings in the face of increased capital requirements, tightening net interest margins, reduced fee income and increased regulatory costs has forced many banks to focus on growing the top line which means increased lending. Banks of all sizes are now aggressively growing C&I and CRE lending. The fierce competition for loans has attracted regulatory attention. By historical standards, this recovery is getting old. The Federal Reserve continues to pursue an aggressive monetary policy. History shows a large percentage of losses banks incur are on loans made in the last two years of a recovery. Will history repeat itself? In this session, Barrickman will address these topics: The current credit cycle prudent growth or impending bust? Is your bank a candidate to experience large numbers of problem loans? What industries will make up the next concentrations of problem commercial loans? Which borrowers have a high probability of experiencing credit problems? What steps should your bank take to prepare for the next downturn in the credit cycle? 10:45 a.m. Wrap-Up Tina Cline, First Vice President/Chief Compliance Officer/CRA Officer/Audit Manager, First Century Bank, Tazewell, TN 11:00 a.m. Adjourn 2016-17 CREDIT COMMITTEE Chairman: Tina Cline, First Vice President/Chief Compliance and CRA Officer/Audit Manager, First Century Bank, Tazewell Scott Bagwell, Executive Vice President & Market President, Reliant Bank, Springfield Joel Beavers, Regional Credit Officer, SmartBank, Knoxville Robert Bradley, Executive Vice President/Chief Risk Officer, Bank of Tennessee, Johnson City Tom Caldwell, CPA, Senior Manager, KraftCPAs PLLC, Nashville Larry Estepp, Executive Vice President, Citizens Bank, Kingsport Philip Fons, Chief Credit Officer, InsBank, Nashville Nina Gourley, Audit Manager, Watkins Uiberall, PLLC Emily B.
