CUNA Mutual Group Ireland hosted 50 credit union managers and directors, as well as Ireland's credit union regulator, legislators and industry trade organizations, during a "Future of Finance" conference in Dublin, Ireland. The event focused on best practices from CU systems around the world with an eye toward helping Irish CUs endure the economy and capitalize on opportunities.

CUNA Mutual also shared results from a survey of Irish credit unions using information previously gathered by Filene Research Institute. Filene CEO Mark Meyer was a keynote speaker at the event.

The Future of Finance conference provides our industry leaders with a unique window of knowledge to other systems."
