It’s Time to Stand Up
And Be Counted Today!
today's date of this
Newsletter, commercial bankers
IhaveNCLUDING
ju st 43 days left in which to
make their opinion known to their
Congressmen that they want the
Moratorium lifted, as promised, by
March 1, and new powers to com­
pete with other segments of the fi­
nancial industry.
This all-out effort should include a
personal letter or postcard from
every officer, staff member, director
and their adult family members...
and customers, if possible. ABA and
IBA A offices have furnished com­
plete details to each member bank.
If you need details for your letters
and those of the other parties noted
above, contact your state associa­
tion office at once. Congress will
gauge the intensity of banker inter­
est in this critical matter by the
level of input generated by bankers.
This is one job the lobbyists can’t do
for the membership. It requires your
personal involvem ent. A few
minutes spent on this legislation to­
day can mean years of greater pro­
ductivity for all banks, so act now!

FDIC Nixes Regulation
Requiring Outside Audits
FD IC Chairman William L. Seidman said the agency is dropping its
proposal for a full-opinion, outside
audit of banks because “well over 90

percent of the banking institutions
with more than $100 million in
assets already have an opinion
au d it. . . For banks under $100
million, only 58 percent have a full
opinion audit. We believe many
smaller institutions that do have
audits could improve safety and
soundness if a less than full-scope
audit could be designed for this pur­
pose.” He added that his staff is
endeavoring to develop an “afford­
able special audit for small banks,”
working with CPAs and the banking
industry.

Nebraska News
LB 664e, the Farm Mediation
Act, was recently debated by the
Nebraska legislature. It failed by
two votes to advance to Select File
status and remains on General File.
LB 488, which would provide for the
deposit of public funds in stock S &
Ls beginning in 1990, was amended
and advanced to Select File. LB 703,
which would allow for de novo
branch banking, was held over.
Amendments to limit branching to
Douglas, Sarpy and Lancaster coun­
ties are reportedly being drafted to
be considered in the future.
B E L L E V U E : Among recent promo­
tions at First National Bank of
Bellevue were the advancements of
assistant vice presidents Terry L.
Zaback and Bernie Pilachowski to
vice presidents, in commercial len­
ding and installm ent lending,
respectively.

AUTOMATION OF THE LOAN PORTFOLIO
A fresh new approach to the time consuming task of managing
the AG loan portfolio.
While other bank software packages
were designed from the farmers standpoint, the newly developed
AgMGR (pronounced "AG Manager") software package from MGR
Software, Inc. was designed with the aid of ag loan officers
to offer lending institutions a standardized method for
handling and evaluation of financial information.
The forms were originated by a group of corporation employees
whose backgrounds included Government Agency, Farm Credit
Systems, and Commercial Bank lending experience.
The forms
that were developed included an extensive cash flow, balance
sheet, trend analysis, and credit arrangement with a credit
scoring system designed to compliment the package.
