The Illinois Credit Union Leagues (ICUL) partnered with CUNA and CUNA Mutual Group to host an advocacy training session, CU CAFÉ, which was held July 24-25 at the ICUL office in Naperville.
Allowing legal cannabis-based businesses access to financial services is a public safety issue, noted Rachel Pross, representing the CUNA/League system before the Senate Banking Committee Tuesday.
These long-time league CEOs were singular in their mission to help CUs expand their products and services, achieve legislative and regulatory aims, and bring about exponential growth.
The idea behind this multipronged effort is that the credit union tax exemption enables credit unions to give back to their communities and offer better rates and fees to members.
Alternative lending, compliance management systems, and ideas for boosting credit card portfolios are among the topics of Credit Union Magazine’s Winter 2019 edition.
