ALBANY, N.Y. — The New York State Credit Union League recently hosted its third annual CEO roundtable for credit unions with up to $50 million in assets.
The purpose of the event is for smaller credit unions to explore opportunities to work together and collaborate with others, according to the league. Thirty CEOs attended this year's roundtable, which covered topics ranging from disaster recovery preparedness to risk-based lending to liquidity challenges to board relations.
"Opportunities like this that foster collaboration and cooperation among our peers go a long way when looking at how we can better serve our members," ACMG Federal Credit Union CEO Vicki O'Neill, who helped organize the event, said.
League President/CEO William J. Mellin added, "The CEO roundtable is an example of a high-level event facilitated by the League to bring together credit union leaders for the common benefits of credit unions. This is a valuable opportunity for CEOs to discuss their shared goals, and the League is proud to host such a forum."
During the dialogue and open discussion sessions, facilitated by Inner Lakes Federal Credit Union CEO Travis Heiser, participants also discussed possibilities for future collaboration, including business lending, student loan programs and payday lending.
Presentations were also provided on growth in the current marketplace and trends in executive benefits and succession planning.
NYSCUL also has a ListServ available for credit union leaders who would like to continue networking with their peers on an ongoing basis.
