Records Retention: Requirements, Organization, Destruction – Warden

Don’t you wish you could hear more often, “Yes, you can get rid of that.” 

Record retention is vital to the Credit Union’s ability to produce documents needed for audits and examinations, as well as answer member inquiries in a positive, service-focused manner.

For some, destruction of records may create much needed office space and organization!

In this session, Carolyn Warden, an industry expert, will explain the importance of maintaining and organizing key documents including:

  • Member Statements
  • Lending: Applications, Documentation & Collections
  • Back Office, Electronic Transactions & Accounting Entry Details
  • Members’ Account Verification & Audit Work papers
  • Permanent Records

In addition, this session will cover areas prone to litigation: Human Resources; Lending Issues. Well organized & maintained files are key evidence for the Credit Union’s defense in lawsuits.

Your presenter created a Records Retention Workbook and Log, a separate and customizable tool to organize your policies for retaining and destroying your records. To purchase your copy for a big time savings, only $199, contact Carolyn directly at  720-841-1413.

Who should attend?  Compliance specialists, operations, back-office and lending managers and any other CU employee involved in risk management pertaining to documentation and/or the lack thereof.  In some credit unions DP/IT and facilities management staff involved in the preparation of reports in various mediums, as well as the storage and destruction of records should attend also.
