ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
CLIENT First National
Bank of Volga
TOTAL ASSETS $22,000,000
CHALLENGE The bank
contacted PMC to assist with the utilization of Profitstar. Previously the
bank had purchased the software but was unsuccessful in obtaining a clean download
of data. The bank did not have a formal Asset/Liability Management Committee
structure and
had
seen a declining trend in their Net Interest Margin.
SOLUTION PMC assisted
the bank in creating greater detail in the bank's general ledger and revamped
the method in which Profitstar downloaded. Custom ratios were developed, Asset/Liability
policy and procedures were developed along with a formal ALCO committee structure.
Significant training and transfer of skills and knowledge occurred with the
President and the management team.
RESULTS Bank management
identified pricing opportunities to improve the Net Interest Margin. Profitstar
provided management with a projection that would show the expected outcome
of the proposed pricing changes. A 12 month projections identified an improvement
of about 30 bts., equal to approximately $65,000 increase in Net Interest Income
on an annual basis. In less than 12 months the new projected NIM was realized.
