FDIC and State examiners teaming up


FDIC and State examiners teaming up

I wrote a similar post earlier, but it now seems that perhaps the reason the State of Georgia has adopted the FDIC IT Examination Questionnaire is that the FDIC has been showing up on-site with the State examiners.  I’ve gotten reports that this is happening with increasing frequency, and not just in Georgia.

My advice is to familiarize yourself with the FDIC Questionnaire, even if you are preparing for a State examination.  Be able to answer each question and, most importantly, to justify your answer with the appropriate documentation.
