Illuminating Data in the Boardroom

In his latest RMA book for bank directors who want to excel in their trusted roles as overseers and tone setters, author Dean A. Yoost focuses on the promise and perils of data.

He explains the universe of data issues that confront financial institutions—from governance and privacy to data-driven transformations—and provides directors a guide for managing them.

In keeping with Yoost’s previous books, A Director’s Voyage Through Risk Management and Navigating Information Technology in the Boardroom, his latest includes:

• “Questions Directors Should Ask” with each chapter
• Original insights from top financial industry executives

Michael Shepherd, Chairman of BNP Paribas USA and Bank of the West, calls Illuminating Data in the Boardroom “an excellent primer for board members on the key topics associated with data.”

Dean A. Yoost is a board member of both MUFG Union Bank and Pacific Life Insurance Company. He also serves as an advisory committee member of America Honda Finance Corporation. Dean is a retired partner of PricewaterhouseCoopers, where he spent 33 years and served as one of only 18 partners elected to PwC’s Global Oversight Board. He is the author of the book entitled A Director’s Voyage Through Risk Management and the co-author of the book entitled Navigating Information Technology in the Boardroom.
