I attended the AXFI credit union data analytics conference this month and continue to be amazed at how fast the financial world is moving these days. It’s moving so fast, at times, it’s down right scary, but at the same time there is opportunity. Here are a few highlights from some of the speakers and sessions:
After months of preparation, writing, and research, our new compliance whitepaper is now available! Our most in-depth whitepaper to date, "6 Long-standing Compliance Issues You May Want to Revisit" is a must read for anyone who touches compliance at his/her credit union.

We are excited to introduce our newest employee and member of our compliance team, Jamin Carlisle. Jamin is now part of our East Coast compliance office in Woodbridge, VA, in the D.C. area. Our outsourced compliance service continues to grow, and with credit union clients from coast to coast, we needed an additional compliance officer!
Our client U-1st Community FCU of Carlsbad, NM, is now part of the CO-OP Shared Branching Network. We are thrilled not only to welcome a new shared branching client, but especially one who brings shared branching to an unserved region. Their branch in Carlsbad, NM is quite a welcome addition to the network, as U-1st now offers the only shared branch within a 160-mile radius! Furthermore, their branch in Carlsbad, NM, will serve a quickly-growing population and industry - one that is experiencing the challenges of an oil boom.
