About this event
Banking and Financial Systems is a team case study where competitors analyze a scenario involving a bank, credit union, or financial services firm and present findings and recommendations to judges. Teams typically have limited prep time before presenting. Strong teams apply core banking concepts -- capital adequacy, liquidity management, regulatory compliance -- to the specific scenario, quantify their recommendations with supporting data, and anticipate judge questions on risk and regulation.
