Let Lending Lead the Way
15th Annual
CUNA
Lending Council Conference
Hilton Bayfront Hotel
San Diego, California | November 1-4, 2009
If poor lending practices in the financial industry have contributed to the economic crisis, then it's up to credit unions to ensure that smart lending leads us out.
Yes, attending a conference is an expense in a time of ever-tightening budgets. But you can't afford to be penny-wise and pound-foolish. Your members are relying on you to understand and implement the right strategies for dealing with foreclosures, short sales, and other challenges.
Topics covered in our more than 25 sessions are as wide-ranging as they are helpful. Sessions include:
- Earning your way out...an update on the housing market
- Practical steps for regulatory compliance for 2010
- Experienced MBL roundtable
- Lending to the newly credit impaired
- Loan fraud in the new economy
So, what's the REAL financial impact of attending the CUNA Lending Council Conference? It might be easy to justify not spending money to attend, but can your credit union afford to miss out on potentially saving $450,000?
