Look to the IBA for Your Compliance Needs

Law Department Conferences

BANK COUNSEL CONFERENCE 214 attendees

JUNE COMPLIANCE CONFERENCE 91 attendees

FALL COMPLIANCE CONFERENCE 58 attendees

SPRING LAW REVIEW 18 attendees

The IBA law department also presented on recent developments in Illinois banking law for groups of compliance professionals throughout the state, including annual events for the Northern Illinois Compliance Association and Central Illinois Compliance Network.

Compliance Questions Compliance issues pose major challenges for bankers, and our IBA law department is here to help our members. In 2019 alone, we published answers to over 500 compliance questions on our IBA Compliance Connection website at GoToIBA.com, where they will join over 4,000 compliance Q&As total.

Compliance Resources Well over 1,000 bankers use GoToIBA.com from 249 member institutions, where they find over 200 topic pages and over 4,000 compliance Q&As, together with articles, resources, and much more.

OTHER ACCOMPLISHMENTS The IBA law department wrote a letter to the Secretary of State’s office to formally express our concerns regarding the Secretary of State’s allegations and interrogatories claiming that many Illinois bank holding companies owed substantial sums of unpaid franchise taxes from previous years. The Secretary of State’s office later issued a statement clarifying its policy, providing relief for many affected bank holding companies. The IBA law department submitted a comment letter on a major issue affecting Illinois banks — the CFPB’s

small dollar lending rule. As a follow up to our 2016 comment letter on the proposed small dollar lending rule, we requested that the CFPB adopt a loan amount threshold for the rule’s coverage or, at the very least, establish a carve-out from the rule for loans made to sophisticated, high-net-worth individuals.

We provided support in negotiating two leases for the IBA’s new office space in Springfield, as well as negotiating, drafting and reviewing numerous other contracts for the IBA and its subsidiaries throughout the year.

Advocacy is an incremental process, but an essential task to support our industry’s future. As we often say around the IBA, “if you’re not at the table, you’re probably on the menu.” If bankers are not talking to their lawmakers, supporting campaigns, and discussing policies that help banks and their customers, our opponents will fill the void - and the results won’t be favorable.

That’s why our industry must keep driving forward through political highs and lows to promote and protect banking. We know bankers are busy people, so we continually seek new methods to engage bankers and make it easy and fun to support our industry, our advocacy priorities, and our PAC. Let’s take a look at our collective efforts in 2019 in four key areas of advocacy: PAC, grassroots, industry image, and, of course, issues advocacy (lobbying).

We are incredibly close to our $350,000 PAC goal: over $330,000 raised as of early December! This reflects an exceptional effort to support our PAC by bankers, associate members, IBA staff, and other allies – thank you!! We have made it easier to give by starting a new vacation raffle, hosting fun outings during our conferences, and through personal outreach by the IBA board and PAC board. Your support means we have maintained a strong PAC despite industry consolidation.

Grassroots – or member-driven advocacy – constantly evolves. In 2019, we’ve rebranded our grassroots program to meet our members’ needs. We bring advocacy to you through our Let’s Talk Banking meetings and email-driven legislative calls-to-action. We’re rolling out our new Legislative Ambassador program – you’ll be hearing more about it in the coming months. Our flagship grassroots events remain vital to our mission, and attendance at the Washington Visit and Springfield Economic Investment Day remained strong in 2019. However you choose to participate, plan to get involved in grassroots advocacy in 2020!

The banking industry’s image continues to lag other industries. The IBA continually works to restore our image among lawmakers, media, and the public. We have unveiled independent economic data to illustrate the importance of our industry in

Illinois’ economy. Our grassroots events have refocused on promoting a positive image. Recently, we started working with lawmakers to host an ongoing series of “economic outreach” events throughout Illinois. These events provide Illinoisans in underbanked areas with direct access to mortgage and small business lenders, providing valuable information on reaching financial goals. Finally, the IBA is increasingly active in the media through editorials, providing statements for articles, and visiting reporters and editorial boards.

Issues Advocacy - Often, we lobby issues for years before seeing results. But when change occurs, it can happen quickly. We saw this with cannabis banking legislation in 2019. We have supported a safe harbor for banks to support legal cannabis businesses for four years with little progress. Suddenly in 2019, our bill was fast-tracked through the U.S. House and has a chance of passing the Senate. We saw progress in 2019 on other issues we have talked about for years. BSA-AML reform that addresses beneficial ownership issues has passed the House, and the banking agencies are making progress on a long-overdue modernization of the Community Reinvestment Act.

Back in Illinois, we are effectively working with the state legislature and the governor’s office to protect our industry from overregulation. Certainly, we have experienced setbacks, such as the progressive tax increase, but we’ve also held the line on industry-specific taxes – we defeated every banking industry tax proposed by the General Assembly in 2019.

Speaking of taxes, we continue to evolve our message on credit unions. We are dismayed that four Illinois community banks were bought by credit unions in 2019. It’s hard to see a silver lining in this, yet this phenomenon has breathed new life into our credit union advocacy. Tax-paying banks being absorbed by untaxed credit unions perfectly illustrates why it’s time for credit union tax reform.

Advocacy is incremental – but change can happen quickly, and often when least expected. We encourage you to join our grassroots team in 2020 by supporting our PAC, attending events, and engaging with your lawmakers. Positive change for our industry won’t happen if you’re not involved!

332 Bankers brought together through IBA federal and state advocacy events Over 500 State legislative proposals monitored or lobbied by the IBA in 2019 60 Bills and ordinances defeated or successfully negotiated 62 Advocacy emails delivered to bankers’ inboxes to keep them informed on legislative and regulatory developments Connected with over 45 legislators’ constituents through small business and financial literacy workshops in underserved areas

as you all know, embarking on an office relocation is never easy, but it offers exciting, new opportunities! When the IBA changed its logo a few years ago—we wanted it to reflect who we are. We are unapologetically bold and strong, but approachable. We are modern. We are warm, friendly and welcoming. We can be trusted and dependable. Our new office, interior design and style match our brand, and we’re excited to give you a first look! Our move has created a total refresh with modern (cool!) signage, inviting and bright space. Our interior is consistent throughout, and we’ve added new technology and an even more efficient phone system. We are particularly proud of our new Center for Banking Excellence, which provides a wonderful, state-of-the-art space for training, and the adjacent dining room for guests, which is perfect for networking and collaborating. We’ve begun showcasing some of our old photos, and, soon, our artifact collection will be on full display to highlight the IBA’s incredible 128-year history. This will be a must-see exhibit! We’re sure that our many guests – bankers, associates and partners – will enjoy coming to our office. It is easy to get to, with plenty of adjacent hotels, restaurants and retail opportunities. We are eager to show off our new space, and there is nothing we like better than spending time with our members!

Our first visitor - Ron Hobson, MIB

Ron Hobson was the first official visitor to our new Springfield office location! He came to our new space at 3201 W. White Oaks Drive on Day 1 of our big move, when we were still unpacking and settling in, and we invited him to return for a tour once all of finishing touches were complete. I am so excited for the IBA and was really curious about the new space. I couldn’t wait to see it! I actually worked in this very building on the same floor many years ago when I was with Norwest/ Wells Fargo, so it’s like old home week for me. ”

First Seminar – Security Management Workshop led by Randy Phillips with Thompson Consulting Group

Wow! The IBA really hit it out of the park! The colors, the branding and the signage are amazing. I love all of the decorating touches, like the beautiful mural and the core values in the reception area, the historical items throughout the hallways and even the signage when you come off of the elevator.

My favorite part is the new Center for Banking Excellence. Not only is it state-of-the-art, but the view is outstanding. I love how you’ve displayed the art canvas that was donated to the IBA during the PAC auction at last year’s Annual Conference. And you can’t beat this location! It’s convenient, and there’s plenty of parking, restaurants and hotels nearby. Congratulations to my friends at the IBA on their new Springfield office space!
