While a national search was started in 2009, Fowler has been interim CEO since Jan. 1, 2010.
"This is a critical time in the credit union industry and the leadership role at the association has never been more important," noted SCCUL Chairman Scott Woods, who also is president/CEO of South Carolina FCU. The association, he said, "worked hard to align our strategy for strong advocacy at the association level" which is why it selected Fowler.
