If your institu-tion is one of the 1,257 com-munity banks or 573 federal savings as-sociations su-

pervised by the Office of the Comptrol-ler of the Currency, you might want to continue reading this column. If your institution is one of the other 141 in-stitutions supervised by the OCC (total 1,971), continued reading is optional. Comptroller of the Currency Thomas J. Curry offered remarks before the Inde-pendent Community Bankers of Ameri-ca National Convention & Techworld in Las Vegas, NV, on March 14. He said, as Comptroller, he sees daily “the positive impact that federally chartered com-munity banks and thrifts have upon the towns and cities they serve.” While the OCC’s supervisory portfolio includes the nation’s largest financial institu-tions, he said more than two-thirds of OCC examiners are devoted to commu-nity bank supervision. Curry focused his remarks on what the OCC is doing to support commu-nity banks. He encouraged OCC-su-pervised community banks “to look to your local exam team as a resource.” He encouraged community banks to take advantage of other OCC resources, e.g., workshops for bank and thrift directors and many publications and online ser-vices, including the Semiannual Risk Perspective and BankNet, respectively. Another resource which Curry said is “just off the press” is a new book-let titled, “A Common Sense Ap-proach to Community Banking.” He said the booklet will be available in a few weeks from the Assistant Deputy Comptroller (ADC) who manages the local field office and was available at the OCC booth at the convention. The booklet, he said, “reviews a

range of topics important to com-munity bankers, and highlights in particular three time-tested concepts that all financial institutions should understand and apply to their busi-nesses: • First, accurately identify and moni-tor risks to the institution. • Second, map out a vision and busi-ness plan that includes sufficient cap-ital support. • And third, understand how the su-pervisory process works and how to extract helpful information from that

process. That third item, he said, “har-kens back to my point about reaching out to your portfolio manager or ADC.” While this list appears to come straight out of a “Fundamentals of Banking” course, “in practice, identi-fying, monitoring, and managing risk requires considerable experience and discipline.” Curry said, “some institu-tions are measurably better at it than others.” Spoken like a true examiner! Curry said one tool to help in this area is reviewed in detail in the book-

Fairfield Promoted to Private Banker at Mutual of Omaha

Sunrise Bank in Albuquerque has re-ceived a capital infusion of $1 million from its parent company, Capitol Ban-corp Ltd, Lansing, MI, in order to avert a seizure by bank regulators, accord-ing to documents filed recently in fed-eral court and reported in an article by Dennis Domrzalski in the Albuquerque Business First. Capitol Bancorp, which is in bank-ruptcy, needed to shore up Sunrise Bank in order to prevent the FDIC from attempting to recoup losses from other Capitol-owned banks due to cross-guaranty liabilities. Sunrise Bank is under an agree-ment to be sold to Westar Bancorp of Albuquerque, which is seeking regula-tory approval Q

First Scottsdale & Commerce Bank in Tucson to MergeFirst Scottsdale Bank and Commerce Bank of Arizona's parent company, CBOA Financial Inc., Tucson, have an-nounced an agreement to merge in an $8.6 million deal.

Spirit of Texas Bank to Enter D/FW Metroplex Through Acquisition of Peoples Bank in Colleyville/GrapevineCollege Station-based ST Financial Group Inc., the holding company for Spirit of Texas Bank, SSB, has agreed to buy Colleyville-based Peoples Bank. ST Financial will merge Peoples Bank into $462.9 million-asset Spirit of Texas Bank, SSB. Terms of the deal, which is set to close some time in the second quarter of 2013, were not disclosed. The transaction will represent ST Financial’s initial brick and mortar en-try into the D/FW Metroplex, adding offices in Colleyville and Grapevine. Spirit of Texas Bank operates 10 loca-tions in the Greater Houston and Col-lege Station markets and two LPOs. The bank has acquired six banks since its founding in 2008.

Spirit of Texas Bank operates one LPO near Dallas and plans to open two additional branches in the Me-troplex, besides the two from Peoples Bank, according to Dan Bass, manag-ing director, investment banking, for Performance Trust Capital Partners, LLC, in Houston. Peoples Bank is a $72.5 million-

asset, two location state-chartered bank, which was established as a de novo in July 2002. Bank Chairman Rob-ert Beall will be joining the boards of directors for both Spirit of Texas Bank and ST Financial as part of the deal. Commerce Street Capital LLC, Dal-las, advised ST Financial for this trans-action and for raising $37.1 million in equity capital through two private placements since December 2010 Q

let, The Risk Assessment System, a tool the OCC uses to guide exams. Although he did not run through the entire model for the audience, Curry shared some thoughts “about the way to approach risk assessment systems or frameworks.” Since no one system works for all community banks, he said, “you may find it very useful to start with our system then make ad-justments based on the size, complex-ity, and footprint of your organization.Also take into account your business strategy.” Curry said the booklet “also high-lights the relationship between our risk assessment system and enter-prise risk management (ERM). The Risk Assessment System helps identi-fy and monitor changes in risks across the institution, and ERM “is a process that can help you manage those risks in a comprehensive and integrated manner,” he said. ERM starts at the top, with the board of directors and senior management, and filters down through the bank’s culture. “A strong risk culture is proactive, and it drives the way your bank sets strategy and makes decisions,” he added. Curry concluded saying “these are issues about which federal banks and thrifts can look to the OCC for sup-port. Don’t hesitate to call” Q
