Banks and bank boards are experiencing unprecedented scrutiny to rebuild capital and restore shareholder value. The past eighteen months have seen the most dramatic change in banking since the great depression. It is clearly time for bank boards to step up and help guide their financial institutions back to profitability.

Bank Director magazine and American Banker are joining forces to provide a roadmap for directors of financial institutions by presenting America's Bank Board Symposium, a unique event that will provide bank directors with the knowledge they need to develop, implement, and monitor sound strategies for their institutions, and provide them the tools they need to fulfill their fiduciary duties to their bank shareholders.

The event will bring together experienced and well respected bank board members, regulators and industry thought leaders for an interactive two and a half day program. Attendees will include directors and C-level officers from banks from across the nation.

Topics to be discussed will include The Board - CEO Relationship, How Effective Boards Foster High Performance Banks, The Board's Role in Strategic Planning, The Board's Role in Risk Oversight, Relations with Bank Regulators, What the Future Holds for America's Financial Services Industry, and more.
