Jones Walker will present a series of six free monthly webinars, targeted at bank officers and directors, focused on banking business operations in today's troubled economic environment. Each one-hour webinar will feature presentations from attorneys experienced in counseling financial institutions—and possibly from regulators or legislative staff—discussing current trends in supervision, regulation, bank operation, and management resulting from economic upheaval that has beset the industry since summer 2007.

The seminars will cover the following topics (seminar agendas will be updated the week before each seminar; seminar slides will be linked following each seminar's completion):

• December 15, 2009: "The Current Banking Environment and Its Implications For Your Next Exam" — Agenda | Slides
  
• January 12, 2010: "The Regulatory Enforcement Process" — Agenda | Slides
