The Community Bankers Association of Georgia Offers Access to Bankers Helping Bankers for Its Member Banks

MARIETTA, Ga., January 18, 2022 (Newswire.com) - The Community Bankers Association of Georgia is pleased to announce its participation with the FedFis and state community banking associations nationwide to offer access to Bankers Helping Bankers to its member banks in Georgia.

Bankers Helping Bankers is a bankers only platform for collaboration and education. Through data tools and dynamic user groups, Bankers Helping Bankers provides community bankers with a knowledge base focused on bank technology and emerging Fintech companies, as well as hot topics such as cryptocurrencies, banking as a service and direct digital banking. 

"Bankers Helping Bankers is about community banks coming together to address their shared challenges, operate more efficiently and discover new sources of income," said Dave Mayo, Chief Executive Officer of FedFis, the developer of the platform.   

FedFis partnered with the Independent Bankers Association of Texas (IBAT) to bring the idea for Bankers Helping Bankers to life. "The future of community banking depends on their collaboration. Bankers Helping Bankers is the next iteration of the traditional value proposition of associations - the promise that together we can accomplish more than we ever could alone," said IBAT President and CEO Christopher Williston. 

"I am grateful for the hard work done by IBAT and the team at FedFis to develop Bankers Helping Bankers (BHB)," said John McNair, President and Chief Executive Officer of CBA of Georgia. "Our members now have a tool to help navigate the many challenges and opportunities associated with today's technology solutions. Additionally, I am also excited about the user group feature of BHB. I believe CBA of Georgia member banks will find this to be a powerful peer-to-peer engagement tool."
