RMA Event Details

Please join us for a lively discussion by several senior lenders in our area about hot topics that they are dealing with at the current time.  Some of the topics that are on the agenda are:  Fairness in Banking regulations, SBA Hot Topics, Appraisal Review issues and others.  Come and hear some of our regions experts describe the issues that they are dealing with internally and within their examinations by their regulators (the things that keep many of us up at night these days…).  There will be some great information shared by the panel and also will be a good opportunity to ask questions as well!  And of course, a great lunch at Carbone’s.
