Since the announcement of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act in late September 2008, the various initiatives to shore up the banking system, including TARP and its Capital Purchase Program and the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program have taken a variety of twists and turns.

Now, with the bailout several months old and hundreds of billions of dollars out the door, what are the likely implications for the future of the bank sector in 2009 and beyond? And how can you distinguish between the genuine opportunities and further pitfalls?

To answer the many questions, you're invited to join in a free webinar as SNL Financial brings together a roundtable of leading experts who will share their insights on the current situation and what is likely to unfold for banks on the capital, M&A and investment fronts.

Just as important for you, this is not a passive "listen in" session; you'll also have the opportunity for questions and answers in a setting free from bias and corporate agendas.

Topics for discussion include:

  • What is the current state of TARP and TLGP? Which banks are participating and why? Which banks have opted-out? How much capital has been deployed?
  • What has been the impact on the overall capital position in the bank industry? What has been the impact on regulatory (Tier 1) capital and other measures such as tangible common equity? Is TARP still viewed as "cheap capital"?
  • How far will regulators go to impose restrictions on the uses of capital? Does section 5.3 of TARP have an impact?
  • Have TARP and TLGP and other regulatory initiatives gone far enough to ensure adequate liquidity in the bank system? What risks still exist?
  • What role is private capital likely to play in 2009 and beyond? Will private equity be a significant part of the solution?
  • What is the outlook for consolidation in the sector? What impact is TARP and TLGP likely to have on bank M&A in the short and intermediate term future?
  • TARP and TLGP have given regulators tools to separate out the winners and losers. Is this good policy for the bank sector?
  • Will these programs be enough to address ongoing asset quality problems plaguing banks? Will 2009 see any additional measures?
