LOOK INSIDE!

The award-winning RMA Journal is the Association’s flagship publication. Community and international bankers alike value how The RMA Journal brings best practices and lessons learned to their desks (and their PCs) 10 times each year.

The RMA Journal is long revered (almost 90 years!) for its practical howto approach to lending and credit risk management issues.

In the past several years, the Journal has responded to RMA’s recognition of the importance of an integrated risk approach. It was the first publication to introduce the importance of enterprise risk management. Its coverage of regulatory issues is excellent, particularly its comprehensive discussion of the effort to reform the Basel Accord.

Series in the Journal are added as issues warrant. Popular series include:

  • Operational risk
  • Quantitative tools
  • Legal issues
  • Operating efficiency

The Journal provides a forum for bankers, professionals in related fields, banking regulators, consultants, and academics to discuss important ideas and trends affecting the financial services industry. All articles are reviewed before publication by internal and external advisory boards with significant industry knowledge and experience.

Each issue’s cover story is an interview with an industry leader whose trials and triumphs can be applied to your own institution. Whether the interview is with a chief risk officer at a major bank or with the president of a community bank, you will find it interesting and valuable. For instance, Chief Risk Officer Todd Gibbons told how Bank of New York met the 9/11 crisis head-on, just steps from ground zero. More recently, Chief Risk Officer Malcolm Griggs showed how Fifth Third Bank is implementing enterprise risk management.

Count on The RMA Journal for quick, practical ideas to help you improve your bottom line and articles that make you stop and reevaluate the modus operandi of your department, division, or entire institution. Take a step into the future of banking while maintaining a strong foothold in the fundamentals. Subscribe to The RMA Journal.
