On Thursday, April 20, 2006, Mike McBride had the opportunity to speak to the Texas Chapter of the Risk Management Association’s 53rd Spring Conference on the subject of the bankruptcy amendments. Joining him dias were his friends, Alan Trust and Andrea Roost. Andrea focused her comments on the amendments impact on consumer cases and Michael focused his remarks on their effect on corporate cases. Alan moderated and added his thoughts throughout the talk.

RMA is the formation of a group of Bankers who decided that there had to be a better way to exchange credit information and advance the science of credit risk management. The first meeting took place 92 years ago which resulted in the formation of the Robert Morris Club, now known as the RMA.

In conjunction with their talk, Mike and Andrea prepared papers on their respective subjects. We have both papers available, the Amendements’ impact on consumers or the paper regarding the Amendments’ impact on corporations. Please let us know and we will send you a copy.
