Enterprise Risk Types Credit Risk: The risk to earnings and capital arising from an obligor's failure to meet the terms of any contract with the institution, or otherwise fail to perform as agreed. Interest Rate / Market Risk: The risk to a financial institution's condition resulting from adverse movements in interest rates, or changes in the value of portfolios of financial instruments. Liquidity Risk: The risk to earnings or capital that arises from a financial institution's inability to meet its obligations when they come due without incurring unacceptable losses. Compliance / Legal Risk: Risk arising from violations of or non-conformance with the laws, regulations, or prescribed practices which govern the institution's activities. Legal risk arises from potential unenforceable contract, lawsuit, or judgment. Transaction Risk: Risk arising from the potential that inadequate information systems, operational problems, breaches in internal controls, fraud or unforeseen catastrophes will result in unexpected losses. Reputational Risk: Risk arising from negative public, regulatory, industry, and capital markets opinion. Strategic Risk: Risk resulting from adverse business decisions or the improper implementation of those decisions. 3 |

Serving Additional needs "Solving Customer Needs through Exceptional Service?" Empowering customer contact employees with accurate and timely information to have a "needs based" conversation with their customers. |
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/8-K/0000950144-05-009559/g97337g97337z0174.gif)
Serving Additional needs At every point of "customer contact" we provide a timely, accurate marketing message that triggers a customer "needs" conversation. Example Teller, "Good to see you again Mrs. Brown. Brown, "You too Sally." Teller, "Mrs. Brown, are you an active computer user?" Brown, "Yes, why do you ask?" Teller, "We have just installed our new, free Bill Pay service which can save you both time and expense, would you like for me to arrange a demo with one of our CSRs?" Brown, "Tomorrow at three 3:00 would be great." Teller, "Ok, let me set you up with Mary Beth tomorrow for a demonstration and thank you Mrs. Brown for banking with United Community Bank." |
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/8-K/0000950144-05-009559/g97337g97337z0175.gif)
Serving Additional needs Strategic Imperatives Keep it simple Ask a "needs based" question "Do you use a computer?" Not, "Would you like to buy Bill Pay today?" Facilitate a referral to the appropriate expert: lenders, advisors, & CSRs. Make it personal and be specific to the customers needs No quotas or product of the week selling |
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/8-K/0000950144-05-009559/g97337g97337z0176.gif)
Serving Additional needs How does the system know what customer is in front of me? When you open a session on your computer to conduct a transaction or inquiry for a customer, software will identify the individual automatically A database containing questions by customer is queried based on the marketing department's analysis The customers answer is recorded - Accept, Decline or Snooze, for further action |
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/8-K/0000950144-05-009559/g97337g97337z0177.gif)
Serving Additional needs Marketing can see what questions are working and adjust them on the fly Each question can be judged on its merits Change is easy to make Intercept marketing can be tied into direct mail activity Activity can be tailored down to the individual bank level |
