Course Overview
This comprehensive, scenario-based training program presents the key estimating, regulatory, and accounting challenges faced by community banks in determining their reserves—a bank’s most critical quarterly calculation.

The two-day program is developed and presented by MST, the education-based and leading provider of ALLL solutions to community banks. Experts in various disciplines will present information and best-practice  approaches related to estimating the ALLL and the transition to CECL—regulatory, accounting, technology, etc.—and will provide course materials that allow you to apply lessons learned in working through various
allowance scenarios.
