Georgia DBF Clarifies Position
on Loan Renewals |
|
There
has been concern among bankers that with asset devaluation and
capital losses in the current environment, banks would not be
able to modify or renew loans that were originally made under
the statutory legal lending limit.
Following
direct discussions among GBA President Joe Brannen, GBA
counsel Walt Moeling and Jerry Blanchard, and
Commissioner Rob Braswell and the Department of Banking
and Finance staff dealing with
this issue, the
Department
has clarified its intent and policy stance on this issue. The
Department will now take the position that if loans are modified
or renewed by the bank without any additional extension of
credit outstanding, such loans will not be cited for a violation
of the Georgia legal lending limit. |
|
It is
important to note, however, that the fact that a violation of
the rule is not being cited should not be interpreted as a
finding of creditworthiness by the Department; the decision to
classify a credit or credit relationship shall be an independent
process from the application of statutes and rules. The
Department has adopted this new interpretation as a result of
the current challenging environment facing the financial
services industry. The Department expects that when a loan can
be re-worked to bring it into compliance, it should be brought
into compliance. Look for more information from the Department
soon. With questions, contact
Joe Brannen, 404.420.2026, or
Elizabeth Chandler, 404.420,2027. |

Reg. Reform Update: Prudential Regulators Spell
out More Concerns over Proposals |
In Senate
testimony this week, major banking regulators expressed concerns
about the administration’s regulatory reform proposals. All four
regulators testifying at Tuesday’s hearings opposed
giving their consumer protection
powers to a new agency. Their testimony is available
online through the Senate Committee for Banking, Housing and
Urban Affairs. And, there is contentious debate about the
administration’s plan to consolidate the Office of Thrift
Supervision and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency
into a new National Bank Supervisor while leaving state-bank
supervision under the FDIC and Federal Reserve, whose role in
supervising bank holding companies would be strengthened. |
|
Senate Banking Committee Chairman Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) and Sen.
Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) voiced strong support for a
single regulator.
FDIC
Chairman Sheila Bair testified against a single
regulator, and Comptroller of the Currency John Dugan
said he opposed the administration's proposal to eliminate
pre-emption of state consumer protection laws. As we’ve noted in
previous Bulletins, GBA opposes the proposed Consumer Financial
Protection
Agency and the elimination of thrift and mutual charters. We
continue to urge you to share your concerns with your
representative during the August Congressional recess.
With questions, contact
Joe Brannen, 404.420.2026, or
Elizabeth Chandler, 404.420,2027. |

New Guidance out on ALLL for
Mortgages Secured by Second Liens |
|
There’s
new guidance out from regulators about estimating credit losses
and setting aside loan loss allowances on
loans
secured by junior liens on 1-4 family residential properties in
areas where there have been declines in the value of such
properties. |
|
The
Financial Institution Letter says historical loss
considerations should be adjusted at least quarterly for changes
in trends, conditions, and other relevant factors in the current
economic environment that affect repayment of the loans in the
group as of the allowance evaluation date. Pay close attention to this guidance as it could require more
significant ALLL reserves. |

GBA in the News: Mortgage
Modification Efforts Graded |
|
Efforts by mortgage lenders and the government to
help modify mortgages are making progress, but it is taking time
to ramp up the new Home Affordable Mortgage Program that began
in April. Treasury
reported this week that
more than 400,000
mortgage-loan modification offers have been extended and more
than 230,000 trial modifications have begun under the Making
Home Affordable Program. The report drew significant news
coverage nationally. One thing we are emphasizing is that this report
grades only one program. Member banks have reported making
hundreds of thousands of modifications nationally outside the scope of
Making Home Affordable. |
|
In
an interview with Atlanta’s
WXIA TV, GBA’s
David Oliver explained that based on the Hope Now
statistics from the nation’s 27 largest mortgage lenders through
June, we estimate that about 10% of the 1.6 million Georgia
mortgages those lenders are responsible for have been modified
to date since mid 2008. Lenders have been working hard to staff
up to meet tremendous demand and to train staff on how to make
the government’s Home Affordable modifications. Member banks
expect the pace to pick up in the coming months. |

GBA Retirement Plans Announce
Second Quarter 2009 Results |
|
Second
Quarter 2009 was rebound time for investors in the stock market.
All of the LifeStylesSM portfolios
greatly exceeded their year-to-date benchmarks, and participants
who stayed invested in equities and maintained a long-term
investment philosophy recovered some of their losses from 2008.
For GBA Retirement plan participants,
the investment returns of both investment managers,
Reliance Trust Company and
Atlanta Capital Management, performed well against
major market indexes and other competitive funds and models. For
example, the S&P 500 index earned only 3.16% year-to-date
through June 30, while all of the LifeStylesSM
portfolios are up by more than 10%. Please refer to the
update
for detailed returns. Both firms continue to focus on
high-quality stocks and mutual funds to help minimize risks in
the portfolios and funds. The LifeStylesSM
portfolios are a great way to ensure participants are well
diversified and to allow participants to make investment
decisions in a simplified way.
|
|
Please see the Second
Quarter 2009 investment newsletters produced by
Reliance Trust Company and
Atlanta Capital
Management. Members of the GBA Master Trust have
ongoing investment education for their participants
through re-enrollment meetings and an enrollment DVD
or online video.
GBA Retirement Services, Inc. continues to
focus on long-term performance and diversification
as a primary objective when investing in retirement

How to Develop and Retain Your Company’s Top Employees |
|
Now, more than ever, it’s time to make sure you hang on to your
top talent and pay special attention to developing the entire
team. With
TalentQuest, building, developing and retaining an ‘all
star’ team will position your organization to capitalize on
opportunities that will undoubtedly exist when the economy
begins to recover. A comprehensive, carefully structured talent
management program can provide better visibility into top,
mid-level, and low-performing employees, enabling a financial
institution to manage them accordingly. In addition, companies
can more effectively source high-quality candidates, develop and
retain the top talent they already have, and build more reliable
succession plans. And, as the most successful organizations
know, having the best people isn’t simply an ideal; it is a
competitive necessity and one of few true differentiators.
|
|
So
how do financial institutions accomplish this? TalentQuest, for
Financial Services, integrates standardized job descriptions,
competency models and Peak Performer Profiles into a talent
management system designed to guide financial institutions
through each stage of the employee lifecycle. Now more than
ever, it is crucial to ensure you have the right people in the
right places and that your top talent is fully engaged. Doing
so will help you gain efficiencies, which will ultimately help
you outperform your competitors in 2009 and beyond. For more
information, please contact TalentQuest’s
