From the CEO & EVP, Don Hole
Save a Tree and Pass the Word
CBI works hard to make sure that our membership is
informed and up to date on matters concerning community
banking. We do that using a variety of communications
vehicles, and have implemented new publications
including Common Cents, a weekly e-newsletter sent
each Friday, monthly Consumer Tips, suitable for bank
newsletters or newspaper columns, and Regulatory News, a monthly digest of
regulatory items of interest to community bankers. In addition, we continue to
publish a monthly hard copy newsletter, BANKER UPDATE that covers a variety
of subjects which you are reading right now.
We are pleased to provide these publications to you as a member and encourage
you to add other bankers in your bank to our contact lists. Because of the rising
costs of postage, paper and printing, we would like to ask your help in reducing
waste and cost by receiving your monthly Banker Update in an electronic format.
We use a magazine publishing format rather than a PDF that allows you to display
the newsletter on your screen, turn pages, zoom in and out and, if desired, print
selected pages. If you would like to try it out just go to our webpage and take a
look.
Please take a moment to help save some trees, and add additional bankers to the
newsletter list by completing the “Save a Tree and Pass the Word” form on page
15 of this newsletter, then fax the entire page to us at 515-453-1498. We and the
forest thank you.
