FARIN Completes Liquidity Toolbox for the American Bankers Association

Fitchburg, WI – FARIN & Associates, Inc., one of the leading consulting firms that provides asset/liability management solutions and retail product-pricing solutions to financial institutions, announced the completion of the Liquidity Toolbox for the American Bankers Association (ABA) .

The ABA Toolbox on Liquidity is an A-to-Z resource that helps bankers develop a liquidity strategy as well as the policy and documentation that support it. The Toolbox addresses key issues that affect a liquidity policy, the thought processes needed to develop an effective implementation plan and the funding sources that are used to implement them. In addition, a comprehensive online Microsoft Excel workbook is provided that allows users to work through their own scenarios, and several Microsoft Word documents allow users to record them when finished.

"I was glad to help the ABA rewrite their Liquidity Toolbox,” said Tom Farin, president and CEO of Farin & Associates. “It really turned into a work of passion. I was also helped by some of the top people in banking - Dave Koch, Jeff Goble and Karl Nelson. During the time it was under development both the Interagency Liquidity Guidance and the Basel III Liquidity Measurement standards morphed from proposal to final state. The Toolbox incorporates the final form of these two documents. We plan on doing follow up webinars in conjunction with the ABA beginning April 5. Visit www.aba.com for more information.”
“We would like to thank Tom Farin for being the lead author of the ABA Toolbox on Liquidity,” said Frank Keating, ABA President and CEO. “His knowledge and expertise helped us lay out the key issues that will make this an invaluable tool for our members.”
The Liquidity Toolbox is complimentary for all ABA Members and will be available at www.aba.com.
