Bankers’ Resource –

Compliance Forum –
The IBAT Compliance Forum lets you ask other Texas community bankers
questions that you need answers to – and to get input from those “…in
the trenches.”
Legal Ease –

out questions (and answers) submitted by bankers like yourself. A few
of the most recent “Questions of the Week” are posted and there is a
searchable archive sorted by topic to help you find answer to questions
you may or may not have thought to ask.
Web Links –
Here are some SPECIFIC web links we regularly refer to that might be helpful. Check back often for additions - it's a work in progress.

long standing monthly report on recent legislative and regulatory
activity remains “must reading” for IBAT members wanting to stay

issues. Previous comment letters are also available in a searchable

While the legal team cannot substitute for local counsel on specific problems, it can provide a first response on generic regulatory or legal questions. Call at 800/749-4228 for Shannon Phillips, email sphillips@ibat.org, or Kelly Goulart, email kgoulart@ibat.org.
The Legal Department provides technical support to IBAT and its members by monitoring and responding to regulatory developments, filing "friend of the court" briefs, and serving as corporate counsel to the association and its affiliated organizations.
The IBAT legal team recommends that you start your research via the links on this page, however, if you don't find what you need please call or email Shannon Phillips or Kelly Goulart or check out one of the IBAT Forums.
