Rising Rate Strategies & Lessons Learned

Recorded On: 06/01/2022

We are pleased to invite you to an exclusive 75-minute DCG webinar: Rising Rate Strategies & Lessons Learned with Darling Consulting Group President & CEO Matt Pieniazek.

The recent bond market sell-off was one of the most severe in history as inflation pressures took markets and the Fed by surprise, causing a more aggressive stance for tightening this cycle. Undeniably, deposit pricing dynamics have changed, and competition is already intensifying. The corresponding bond market sell-off has created opportunities – and challenges – as loan pricing has lagged the rate increases. It’s time to adjust rising rate playbooks to reflect current realities.

This special session on Wednesday, June 1, 2022 at 2:00 PM ET will share important insight on the key balance sheet issues that will make a difference as your institution strives to restore margin in a rising rate environment.

Matt will focus on:

Deposit initiatives as we seemingly approach a 2%+ Fed Funds world
Loan strategies in an environment of excess liquidity and fierce competition
Investment portfolio strategy and outlook for the industry’s excess liquidity
Making sense out of the current economic and rate environment

Please forward this invitation to your team. Attendance at this free, CPE-credit eligible webinar is limited.
