The Forums provide an opportunity for community bank lenders to exchange ideas freely, dissect problems, and discuss important issues with peers. The Senior Lender Forums are designed to be a rewarding experience where members can grow professionally, as well as personally.

Benefits of the Forum…

• Improve the profitability of your loan portfolio
• Reduce the risk in your loan portfolio
• Increase your understanding of regulatory issues
• Form lasting relationships with noncompeting senior lenders
• Solve your most pressing concerns
• Obtain access to highly respected industry experts
• Grow professionally, as well as personally
• Discuss with peers what works and what doesn’t
How the Forum Works…

• IBA will organize the forum based on bank size and market to ensure that participants have as much in common as possible without being competitors
• The group will be small—no more than 15 participants
• The Forum will meet three times during the year
• Eight to 10 topics will be discussed at each session; participants are strongly encouraged to suggest agenda topics of interest
• Forum participants get the benefit of working with expert consultants on a cost-saving basis
• A binder based on Forum topics is compiled for each group member
