Asset Liability Management and

Investment Strategies Seminar

fter experiencing the most aggressive Federal Reserve
Atightening cycle in decades, we now enter the next phase, the
easing cycle. The critical question persists: Will the Fed achieve
the sought-after soft landing, or will the economy tip into its next
recession? 2025 continues to be marked by uncertainty following
a period of significant pressures and challenges to balance sheets
and net interest margins. Senior management will continue to
navigate an environment with uncertainty of interest rates, higher
cost of funds, tighter liquidity levels, deposit pressures, and the
looming threat of an economic downturn. Proactive balance sheet
management and a robust ALCO process are more crucial than ever.
This seminar will examine the challenges currently faced by CEOs,
CFOs, and investment officers who must navigate the next rate
cycle. Join us for an in-depth discussion of the following topics:
• Economic and Market Update
• The Fed’s Next Moves
• Regulatory Hot Buttons
• Interest Rate Risk
• Liquidity Risk Management
• Investment Portfolio Strategies
• MBS/CMO Market May 8–9, 2025
• Municipal Market Update
