INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SERVICES

With the inception of the Internet, network use, and increased data processing capabilities; regulators and examiners alike have found an ever-growing area in which to heighten the review of your institution. The year 2000 "scare" to the financial industry enabled the regulatory agencies to increase the number of Information Technology examiners. As the worries over year 2000 issues subside, examiners used for compliance in this area, are now focusing on internal controls, electronic banking, and various other data processing issues relevant to your institution. The regulatory agencies are using these IT experts in the course of your safety and soundness exam, as well as specialized IT audits that can come with little warning.
