In a short six months, Bankers Helping Bankers has exploded onto the scene with rapid acceptance from across the nation. Their philosophy is simple, help community banks not merely survive but thrive. “We believe bankers can make the right decisions and thrive if they have the right information. Finally, there is hope for community banking, the backbone of our country,” explains Dave Mayo, CEO of FedFis. The organization’s purpose is exclusively for bankers, at no cost, to learn, network, and equip the banker with accurate information to make business decisions.
Being an advocate partner for community banks and owned by community banks, DCI quickly jumped on board with the Bankers Helping Bankers approach to peer collaboration and support. “It’s one thing to say we support community banks, but if we aren’t taking daily action to implement this value, then we are just talk. I want to walk it out,” states President and CEO of DCI, Sarah Fankhauser. Walking it out is financially supporting Bankers Helping Bankers, which is exactly what DCI did this week. “Sponsoring this organization’s mission to better inform our nation’s banks and provide added collaboration between bankers was an absolute ‘yes’ for DCI,” continues Fankhauser. The financial backing of BHB is what allows all the members to participate at no cost to the individual or the bank itself.
