TULSA, Okla. – The Oklahoma Credit Union League has named Dave Douglas, senior vice president, as Chief Financial Officer, and Lisa Finley, vice president, as senior vice president/Chief Operating Officer, a new position. Douglas will be responsible for the league's accounting, human resources areas, and Audit Division.

OCUL President Bob Bianchini said the organizational changes were made to streamline the league's reporting structure, as well as better coordinate league activities. By breaking the league into two functional areas of responsibility – financial and operational, Bianchini said, "This will allow each area to coordinate their activities in an efficient manner and allocate resources as necessary to provide the best possible services to our state's credit unions."
