Darling Consulting Group’s information-packed, three-day conference offers timely insight into managing your institution’s entire balance sheet in today’s challenging environment. A broad array of educational sessions and interactive forums generate comprehensive and lively discussion on deposit, funding, lending, and investment strategies, as well as liquidity and interest rate risk management… plus CECL, model risk management, and validation strategy.
CEOs, Presidents, CFOs, Directors, CROs, treasurers, risk managers, model development and model risk practitioners, auditors, senior management, and analysts all benefit from this popular annual event. Sessions range from industry fundamentals to advanced, and attendees are eligible for up to 14.5 CPE credits.
DCG's signature education event for learning and sharing with bank and credit union peers.
Across the industry, many banks and credit unions are seeing robust performance and are entering the next phase from a position of strength. While leaders feel more optimistic today than they did a year ago, meaningful uncertainties and complexities still lie ahead.
Against this backdrop, DCG’s 42nd Annual Balance Sheet & Model Risk Management Conference brings strategy, risk, and analytics together to help institutions navigate the road ahead. Sessions will spark new ideas on deposits, lending, investments, derivatives, liquidity, credit, planning, and much more.
We look forward to welcoming you to Boston for thoughtful dialogue, peer exchange, and the opportunity to strengthen decision-making for whatever comes next.

DCG Conference Sessions at a Glance:
Raising the Bar: What High-Performing Institutions Are Doing with Deposit and Loan Analytics
A Special Pre-Conference Workshop hosted by DCG President & CEO Matt Pieniazek
Customer behavior is a significant driver of both risk and opportunity for banks and credit unions of all sizes. Deposit stickiness, betas, migration, runoff, loan repricing, prepayment, utilization, and growth don’t happen in theory; they happen in portfolios every day.
In this pre-conference workshop, DCG President & CEO Matt Pieniazek and senior DCG leaders will guide attendees through a series of live case studies showing how banks and credit unions are transforming data and predictive models into actionable insights.
A direct view into DCG’s Deposits360°®, Loans360°®, and newest AI modules will reveal how institutions move from “what happened” to “what’s likely next” to “what to do now.” Attendees will see practical examples of deposit and loan forecasting, including how predictive analytics can anticipate deposit attrition and migration, loan prepayment and cash flow behavior, and the downstream impacts of loan modifications on earnings, liquidity, interest rate risk, and thus balance sheet management strategies.
This workshop is included in the conference fee and is intended for institutions at all stages of their data journey.
