Our Understanding Bank Profitability training is designed to help bankers guide the often confusing landscape of the financial statements and vocabulary around banking. When you understand the numbers, you can lead with empathy and clarity as well as adapt to the ever-changing environment.
This live/virtual program will begin with a self-guided course called “The Language of Banking” where participants will learn the basics of the bank’s financial reports and ratios. Then, we will go deeper into a real bank’s numbers, put together a strategic plan for a real bank, and learn about the how and the why a balance sheet is managed.
