“The opportunity for Louisiana bankers to interact with bankers around the country who have similar challenges can help them make better decisions, and, that is exciting,” said LBA CEO Ginger Laurent.
The Independent Bankers Association of Texas (IBAT) partnered with Austin, Texas-based FedFis to bring the idea for Bankers Helping Bankers to life. "The future of community banking depends on their collaboration. For decades, banking associations have offered the means of collaboration for bankers relying primarily on face-to-face gatherings. But those means are no longer enough because the profession is changing too quickly. Bankers Helping Bankers is the next iteration of the traditional value proposition of associations - the promise that working together we can accomplish more than working alone," said IBAT President and CEO Christopher Williston.
