Home building goes green, slowly

BY PATRICK GALLAGHER pgallagher@westfairinc.com

C That week was spent in the Future Business Leaders Academy, held June 25-28 at Mercy for 20 students who will be high school seniors in the fall. Students took seminars with CEOs, Wall Street executives, nonprofit leaders and entrepreneurs. They took part in interactive exercises --- trading games, viral marketing, business plan competitions and team-building events – and also networked with young professionals from top

ontractors in White Plains are nearing completion on what they hope will be the third LEED-certified residential development in Westchester County.

Among commercial developers, the Leadership in Environmental and Energy Design certification system has gained widespread use since it was introduced 12 years ago by the nonprofit U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). The newer LEED for Homes program is quickly gaining ground, though more slowly in Westchester.

To date, there are nearly 46,000 LEEDcertified commercial and institutional properties across 120 countries that comprise more than 8.8 billion square feet of space.

While the LEED residential program has only been in effect since 2008, more than 20,000 homes across the U.S. have already been certified, including 1,300 units at 285 developments in New York state.

However, construction industry experts and a leading USGBC official said delays by the home appraisal industry in adopting changes that would attribute a fair value to homes featuring “green” components have stunted the program’s growth.

“It is not just a LEED issue, it’s a green and an energy-efficient feature issue that has really held the industry back over the last several years,” said Nate Kredich, vice president of residential market development for

Wilson Kimball

Mercy dean is all business

BY JANICE KIRKEL jkirkel@westfairinc.com

E

d Weis has only been dean of the business school at Mercy College since mid-May, but he spent much more time than that - 12 years - on Wall Street. He is used to life in the fast lane.

Acting fast to boost Mercy’s stature, he has decided that the way to get the word out to prospective students about what the

school can offer is to bring them to campus and put them to work.

“If you build it they will come, but not if they don’t know about it,” said Weis, a former managing director in investment banking at Merrill Lynch. “The millennials don’t trust advertising. We had to give them first-hand experience with what we can provide. Get to the juniors before they do their college applications. So we gave them an all-expensespaid week.”

From Battery Park to Yonkers, she minds the waterfront

BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

W

alking the streets of her new development beat in downtown Yonkers, Wilson Kimball points to bustling construction sites and speaks hopefully of more building to come, despite a dismal economic climate that has stalled the city’s largest redevelopment project and had the prior administration leaving City Hall with a sense of disappointing incompletion.

Hired in January by newly elected Mayor Mike Spano to direct the city’s downtown and waterfront development office, Kimball sees “a lot of crossover” between her new job and her previous six-year stint as senior vice president for operations at the Battery Park City Authority in lower Manhattan. The 92-acre Battery Park property on the Hudson River is “a huge model,” she said, for the kind of mixed-use development and revitalized parks, marinas and public spaces that city officials and developers envision along approximately 40 acres of Hudson waterfront in Yonkers.

Kimball joined the Manhattan authority in 2005 after serving nine years as chief of staff and counsel to Libby Pataki, then New York’s First Lady. Her administrative role at Battery Park drew unwanted public notice in 2010, when the state inspector general investigated a complaint of fraud, corruption and favoritism involving Kimball and three other BPCA executives said to form the agency’s

“inner circle” of power.

The investigation ended with no criminal charges filed, though it forced the early retirement of the BPCA president, James Cavanaugh, Kimball’s boss and alleged romantic partner. Cavanaugh is a former chairman of the Westchester County Republican Committee who served on the state Senate staff of Nick Spano, older brother of Kimball’s current boss, the Yonkers mayor.

Both Cavanaugh and Kimball refused to answer state investigators’ questions about their relationship, despite warnings that. their refusal to cooperate could cost them their jobs. Following the inspector general’s findings, the BPCA board penalized Kimball with the loss of five days of paid leave. She remained, though, in her Battery Park City post until November 2011, when her job was eliminated in a round of layoffs that cut about one-third of BPCA staff.

In Yonkers, Kimball said she had no comment on the inspector general’s report.

At Larkin Plaza, a construction manager stopped to update the development director on finishing touches to the city ‘s project to uncover a section of the Saw Mill River and create a visitor-friendly riverwalk and park.

we’re kind of in a good bubble, not a bad bubble,” Kimball said of the city’s redevelopment scene. “I get a vibe like Brooklyn or something. It’s sort of an emerging market.”

Yet to emerge in physical form is the sweeping redevelopment project planned by the city’s downtown master developer, Struever Fidelco Cappelli L.L.C. (SFC). The city planning board this month will consider SFC’s request for a three-year extension on site plan approvals for its River Park Center and Government Center projects in the first phase of the redevelopment.

Kimball said the city is working with SFC to revise plans for River Park Center, the retail and entertainment complex to be built at Chicken Island off Getty Square. “I’m very, very optimistic that we’re going to have some development, and in the next two to three years,” she said.

Peter Klein, vice president of development at Fidelco Realty Group and an SFC project manager, said the partners “continue to modify the plans and work with the new administration to make sure that the project that gets built meets the current needs of the city and marketplace.”

Kimball indicated that a 6,500-seat sports stadium that was to crown the River Park Center construction will be eliminated.

Klein said SFC cannot secure commitments from retail tenants until all property parcels are assembled for the proposed 600,000-square-foot project. Thirteen private properties in the Getty Square area were to be acquired by city-sponsored agencies – using eminent domain if owners refused to sell - for River Park Center. But city officials have waited a few years to receive a $24 million grant from the Dormitory Authority of the State of New York that was earmarked for the property purchases.

“We’re going to get something. We don’t know when,” said Kimball. “We’re eager to get it and I think the state is going to be a good partner. I think we’ll get that $24 million.”

If the state does not release the grant money, the scale of the first-phase project at River Park Center will be affected, Klein said.

It would still be “an impactful project of at least $100 million,” he noted.

A project with reduced square footage could curb interest in leasing in downtown Yonkers by potential big-box tenants. “It’s all about the project’s footprint,” said Klein.

“The larger the geography of the project site, the larger the tenants will be. But we don’t want to wait any longer.”

SFC’s sense of urgency is driven too by terms of its land disposition agreement with the city. The developer has a 2013 deadline - four years from the time the agreement was approved - to begin the first phase of construction at River Park Center or pay an additional $2.18 million to the city.

To the northwest on the city riverfront, a landmark property with a recent history of failed development is about to be purchased by a would-be developer.

Ron Shemesh, owner and CEO of Excelsior Packaging Group on the downtown waterfront, has signed a purchase contract for the former Glenwood power plant. A partner at Ariel Property Advisors, which began marketing the roughly fouracre site one year ago, would not disclose the buyer but confirmed that a contract has been signed and said the deal could close late this year.

“That’s a huge development that we’ve been waiting some time for,” said Kimball.

A previous developer who had a purchase option and plans for a mixed-use development on the power plant property later declared bankruptcy.

With the purchase, Shemesh and his investment partners will control most of the Alexander Street industrial corridor that city planners want to redevelop as a high-density, mass-transit-oriented neighborhood. The Yonkers planning board last year approved the manufacturer’s plans to build 1,395 residential units and 85,000 square feet of commercial space in four phases on a 22-acre industrial property at 1 Point St. Another once-prominent downtown developer, Homes for America Holdings Inc., lost the property in 2009 and abandoned plans for a $900 million development there after defaulting on more than $100 million in loans.

“The vision of the shining city on the hill,” said Kimball, “we can do it here.”

Mandate relief lacking

BY PATRICK GALLAGHER pgallagher@westfairinc.com

I

n the 12 months since signing a bill legalizing gay marriage in New York, Gov. Andrew Cuomo has taken on somewhat of an iconic status in the eyes of many New Yorkers.

While national politicians flounder, Cuomo’s approval rating among voters has hovered around 70 percent for months.

However, local business leaders and elected officials are quietly starting to question whether Cuomo has lost his grip on the state Legislature.

Despite repeated urging from business organizations, county executives, mayors and town and village supervisors, little has been done in the way of achieving immediate mandate relief for municipalities that are struggling to maintain services in the face of the state’s 2 percent tax cap.

Deal-making has become Cuomo’s forte, with an 11th-hour tax overhaul enacted last December followed by a sweeping agreement between Republicans in the state Senate and Democrats in the Assembly that involved a new Tier VI pension system, an amendment to legalize gambling in New York state and new district maps.

While the state will absorb increases in the portion of the state’s Medicaid program that is paid for by counties, little else was done in the way of immediate relief, said Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino.

“I think the governor has led. I think he can be bolder on what he needs to do, especially with respect to pension reforms and certainly with mandate relief,” Astorino said, warning that the state’s municipalities are moving dangerously toward bankruptcy.

Assemblyman Robert Castelli, a Goldens Bridge Republican and staunch Cuomo supporter, applauded the Legislature for passing an on-time budget, pension reforms and the December tax overhaul, but said more must be done in the areas of mandate relief and economic development.

“By and large, I’m very pleased with what we got done. Kudos to the governor,” Castelli said. “But we’ve got to stimulate this economy … I think there’s a lot more to be done in that regard.”

Marissa Brett, executive director of economic development for the Westchester County Association, said Cuomo’s call for a statewide energy highway and the passage of a new pension tier represent steps in the CORRECTION The Food Bank of Westchester received a $750,000 challenge grant from philanthropist Patricia Lanza’s family foundation. The grant was reported as $75,000 in the June 25 Business Journal.

right direction, but said the state won’t see the benefits of either for years, if not decades, to come.

“I think that this administration has done a fantastic job in terms of marketing the state of New York,” Brett said. “What we really need to see and where the jury is still out is, ‘Do we have the policies and everything in place to truly attract businesses and keep them here?”

John Ravitz, executive vice president and COO of the Business Council of Westchester, said the passage of a second consecutive ontime budget shouldn’t be overlooked.

“I was in the Assembly for 12 years,” he said. “In 12 years, I couldn’t tell my family when I was coming home and when the legislative session was going to end, and that was no way to run a state government … I think there is a functioning process (in Albany) that is only going to help the state in the long run.”

How to make more profit It’s been a tough two years. We’ve kept adding new clients, but at lower profit.

We now need to figure out how to boost the amount of profit we’re making on many of our jobs. What are your suggestions?

Thoughts of the day: Boosting margin is all about working smarter, not harder.

It starts with understanding how to categorize costs and profits. Use every tool in your arsenal: sales, finance, marketing, operations, human resources.

Here’s a list of things to try to improve margins: • Up-sell existing customers – get them to buy something additional that doesn’t cost much to deliver.

• Add to the sales force people who can bring in new customers willing to buy existing products at higher prices.

• Find out what else customers are looking for and figure out if you can make it at a higher than average margin.

• Compare results from one client to another ­­– focus on serving and expanding the most profitable ones.

• Identify low-margin products or services and vend them out to some other firm to produce for you, or get rid of them altogether and fill the void with something more profitable.

• Make sure that all accounts receivables are collectible – any that are risky, ask for a credit card upfront before taking on the business.

• Ask for deposits upfront to cover the cost of materials and to lower borrowing costs.

• Offer financing terms to clients who need more time to pay and be sure to charge interest to any client whose payment is later than 30 days.

• Look for a leasing firm to work with to increase financing ability.

• Look for competitors – direct or in allied fields – who may want to get out of one or all products or services they deliver. Buy them up, decrease competition.

• Figure out niches – become unique to specific buyers. They can’t get it anywhere else.

• Set aside a budget to test out new product and service ideas that can lead to sales in the future.

• Look for better deals from vendors.

Shop around, consolidate volume, negotiate better payment terms, ask for free delivery.

• Get more products and services out the door faster by increasing productivity • Look at production labor – how could changing around hours get more productivity? Work four 10-hour days instead of five eight-hour ones, making one less day of stop and start. Put some staff on part time if they’re not needed full time.

• Reorganize workflow and get more efficient.

• Get rid of customers on whom you lose money. Talk to customers about margin and find out who’s willing to work with you; sell the losing accounts to a firm that can do the work more profitably.

• Figure out who in your workforce is productive and who’s not – talk with the unproductive ones and give them 30 days to turn things around or they’re gone.

• If a product line is no longer in high demand, send employees who work on that to training on how to sell and produce something more profitable.

• Ask employees to take vacations in slow times.

• When overtime starts to build up, cut it back by bringing on part-time workers.

• Increase productivity by training employees and upgrading equipment.

• Talk with employees about the importance of increasing margins.

• Reduce overhead costs. Get rid of excess space, renegotiate bank loans, pay off loans, shop for office-supply discounts, evaluate insurance costs, ask insurance brokers for training classes designed to reduce risk premiums.

The list goes on and on. There are myriad ways to reduce costs and boost gross profit and net profit.

ntoine Remy, CFO and vice president of finance for The Dannon Co. Inc., has two obsessions – and one feeds into the other.

The first is to make sure Americans eat more yogurt. The second is to make sure that Dannon, based in White Plains and one of the world’s largest yogurt producers, continues to report increased sales and growth.

Remy recently was joined by several Westchester and Fairfield County CFOs and business experts to discuss the changing role of chief financial officers in the post-recession corporate environment. The roundtable forum in White Plains was hosted by the Westchester County Business Journal and its sister publication the Fairfield County Business Journal, and sponsored by TDBank and McGladrey, L.L.P. Despite the ever-present reminders of the recession in boardrooms and on balance sheets, Remy said the job of a CFO is not to automatically shoot down a bold idea but to find a way to transform it “into a profitable and sustainable proposal.”

“I wouldn’t kill the idea at first because of financial constraints – I would first look at what’s going to drive growth,” Remy said.

“Growth is what’s missing today. It’s not a matter of trying to do it cheaper or to do less – it’s about going back to growth.”

Other roundtable panelists were Russell Boyle, partner in the New York City office of Egon Zehnder; Matthew R. Bud, managing partner of The Financial Executives Consulting Group in Darien, Conn., and chairman of The Financial Executives Networking Group in Westport, Conn.; Charles T. Field, senior vice president and CFO of The Westchester Bank and The Westchester Bank Holding Corp. in Yonkers; and Patrick Lapera, CFO of Bacarella Transportation Services Inc. in Shelton, Conn. Moderating the discussion was Steven F. Kirn, partner in the Stamford, Conn. office of McGladrey L.L.P. Not only has the economic crisis thrust CFOs into the spotlight as risk managers, but it has also given them a more prominent role in day-to-day business operations, Lapera said.

“I think it gave the CFO a little broader business exposure, which I view as a really good thing,” he said. “Maybe it brought some light to the value of the CFO in being able to respond in a crisis situation.”

Where traditionally the CEO has supplied the long-term vision and the CFO is responsible for crunching numbers, analyzing risk and providing discipline, Field said more is expected from CFOs today.

“When I used to go out and we were raising capital (before launching in 2008) …

I basically said to my CEO, ‘You’re the color commentary and I’m the play-by-play guy.’

He would provide the leadership and the

vision and I would take a look at the numbers,” Field said.

“Now I think people want to see what the depth of the CFO is.”

With interest rates and property values historically low, Bud boyle noted the temptation to invest and expand. However, he said, it is important that CFOs continue to act as the last line of defense in order to protect a company’s bottom line.

“The grand visions are all very well when you have plenty of money to throw around,” he said. “When resources are scarce, you count on the CFO to hold people back.”

tion shouldn’t be “no.”

“I’m not the guy who is just here to say no, from a budgetary perspective,” Field said.

“I’m here to say, okay, how do we get it done, how do we get to where we want to be?”

Home building goes green, slowly From page 1

the USGBC. “In commercial, buildings are valued based on the operational costs and savings. On the residential side, it doesn’t quite work that way. So there’s quite a bit of effort toward shaping the residential appraisal industry.”

Through the LEED system, commercial properties and homes can be rated as “certified,” “silver,” “gold,” or “platinum,” based on factors that include design and construction materials and tactics, energy-saving measures, water-efficiency practices, and even proximity to mass transit or environmentally sustainable landscaping.

When Gerry Angel, a realtor with Keller Williams Realty Inc. and a White Plains resident since 1978, decided to renovate her home on Holbrooke Road, she said it was important to her that it contain as many sustainable elements as possible.

“I believe that everyone has a responsibility toward creating sustainability,” she said.

“I felt it was important when I was doing a renovation to do it green.”

The green movement, though, has been slow to gain traction in much of Westchester.

Through mid-June, the only two LEED for Homes-certified developments in the county were a platinum-rated, two-unit stacked duplex in Hastings-on-Hudson, completed two years ago, and a gold-rated, 49-unit multifamily building in Yonkers, completed in May. The Angel home is scheduled to be completed in mid-July. The architect, Christina Griffin Architect P.C., based in Hastings-onHudson, also designed the 2010 LEED for Homes project there.

Michael Murphy, director of new project development for Angel’s principal contractor, Murphy Brothers Contracting in Mamaroneck, said a home can be “energy efficient, environmentally responsible and beautifully designed,” adding that it doesn’t

firms.

“We asked the top high schools in the area to nominate five to 10 candidates they thought of as the best leaders in the junior class. We interviewed them, and took the ones we saw had the most potential to succeed in a fast-track business career,” Weis said.

The program not only helps the students, but the college. “This gives us a chance to get an upfront look at some potential recruits for our undergraduate business programs. They can decide to apply to the business honors

need to be a matter of “function over form.”

Building green, however, comes with a cost.

Murphy said achieving LEED for Homes certification is both more costly and a more complex process than typical renovations or new construction projects.

“The average homeowner likes to think they want to be green,” he said. “If they really want to be green, it’s going to hit them in the wallet.”

In addition, the LEED application process must begin prior to construction, so that the USGBC can assign a third-party “green rater” to verify that the requirements for certification are met over the course of construction.

Murphy said a number of affordable green elements can be incorporated into homes that can still render the home envi-

ronmentally sustainable, such as spray-foam insulation and Energy Star-rated appliances.

Kredich said that more than half of the LEED-certified homes in the U.S. are affordable housing units that substitute sustainable construction practices and materials for the more costly on-site renewable energy systems, such as solar photovoltaic panels or geothermal heating systems.

“It’s really all about priorities and making decisions based on what your needs are as a homeowner,” he said. “But we’re seeing builders do LEED for less than $500 a home” above construction costs without green components.

State and federal incentives are also available to homeowners who build green.

Through the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) Green Residential Building

Program, property owners can apply for incentives ranging from $5,125 for a singlefamily home to $13,375 for an 11-unit multifamily home meeting specific requirements.

Other NYSERDA and U.S. Department of Energy initiatives are available for renovations, new homes and low- and moderateincome housing developments that incorporate various environmentally sustainable elements.

Green homes are expected to grow to account for 29 percent to 38 percent of the U.S. residential construction market by 2016, according to a McGraw Hill construction study. That green-homes market was projected to amount to $87 billion to $114 billion of construction.

The Green Building Council estimated LEED certification is being sought for 79,000 homes currently being built or renovated.

program in the fall.”

That program is the dean’s other creation.

To qualify, a student “has to have great academic credentials and has to interview with me,” said Weis. “I’ll look for public speaking ability, ambition, a well-rounded person.

People who have been very engaged in the high school experience. We will make the same intangible assessment as an employer would.”

Weis said the honors program also will have 20 students. “We’d like to provide internships to the honors group. Internships in each summer. And also send them abroad, to Shanghai and London. It’s a global program.”

Weis said Mercy has traditionally been

very strong in its education and health care programs. The school wanted to take its business program to the next level, perhaps the level of Pace University, which Weis called “the geographic competitor for Manhattan and Westchester.” Mercy also has a Manhattan campus near Herald Square.

Weis said his plan is to sell the school to people in other cities. “We go to New Jersey, Philadelphia, Charlotte, Boston. My objective is not to steal students from Pace. We want to draw people from the region who want to have the Manhattan experience.”

People from distant cities need housing.

Of the 5,000 students attending Mercy in Dobbs Ferry, only 750 live on or near campus, and about half of that number reside in

nearby hotels. Mercy plans to add a second dormitory to the campus in the next few years as it tries to become a more residential school.

Another goal of the 41-year old Weis is to start three institutes.

“The first would be a strategic consulting institute. The idea is to train Mercy business students so they can do a consulting project with a Fortune 500 company, under supervision, of course. But just imagine if a student can say ‘While I was an undergraduate I did real consulting work for XYZ company.’”

Weis also wants to start an entrepreneurship center and a women’s leadership institute, to mentor female students at the business school.

First Niagara’s HSBC acquisition sees business banking increase

BY PATRICK GALLAGHER pgallagher@westfairinc.com

ust over a month after completing its acquisition of more than 100 HSBC Bank USA branches, First Niagara Bank has seen a “dramatic increase” in business relationships and is hiring to handle the rise in demand.

On May 21, First Niagara, a subsidiary of First Niagara Financial Group in Buffalo, wrapped up the HSBC deal, adding $9.8 billion in deposits, $1.6 billion in performing loans and 1,200 employees across New York state and Connecticut.

Among the branches acquired were 25 in the Hudson Valley, including five in Westchester County and six in Fairfield County, Conn. A First Niagara branch in Shelton, Conn., was also consolidated due to its proximity to one of the newly acquired branches.

While the move was viewed by First Niagara executives as primarily being a consumer-oriented transaction, David Ring, who heads the bank’s commercial-lending division, said it has also strengthened the bank’s business banking practice.

“As far as new business generation, we’ve had a dramatic increase in the pipeline of business that’s come into the bank, both in small business and in business banking,” said Ring, who also serves as regional vice president for the Hudson Valley and New England. “Early returns are that the pipelines are growing very quickly.”

Of the $1.6 billion in loans acquired from HSBC, roughly 20 percent were commercial loans. A majority of the deposits acquired from HSBC belonged to consumer clients.

“The here and now is, it was primarily an acquisition of consumer customers with a nice portfolio of smallbusiness and business banking clients,” Ring said.

After the acquisition, First Niagara has $30 billion in deposits and $38 billion in assets spread among nearly 430 locations in Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts.

Of the bank’s $18.8 billion in loans, roughly 60 percent are commercial loans, First Niagara representatives reported. Ring said the majority of the bank’s commercial loans involve companies in northern New York state, adding that HSBC did not significantly develop its business-lending business in the Hudson Valley and Connecticut.

“There is a lot of upside opportunity on the business banking side of the transaction because the bank has such a low market share in this market,” he said. Prior to the acquisition, First Niagara had one Hudson Valley branch and nine Fairfield County branches.

The first step, Ring said, is to ensure that the former HSBC clients absorbed by First Niagara are fully integrated, a process he said made easier by the fact that First

Patricia Reilly, former Mount Kisco mayor (1999-2003) and First Niagara customer with David Ring, head of commercial banking, in the bank’s new Mount Kisco branch.

Niagara’s Hudson Valley and Fairfield County commercial lending teams are each made up of former HSBC or First Niagara employees who previously worked in the region.

“The first month we’ve really focused on our existing customers and on servicing them extremely well,” Ring said. “What we’re seeing in the future is the additional staff we’re going to add in that market will generate more and more loan business.”

While some issues were reported by former HSBC customers relating to difficulties accessing First Niagara’s online banking platform and activating debit cards, Ring said those problems were limited to individual customers.

Michael Kriz, founder and president of Acclaro Inc. in Irvington, called the switch “uneventful.”

Acclaro, a translation services company with several locations worldwide, had been banking with HSBC’s Nyack branch for about 10 years, Kriz said.

“It’s been a couple of months now and so far, so good,” Kriz said. “They changed their emails but it’s the same team.”

Kriz said that so far, First Niagara has made a stronger push to provide credit to businesses and clients that it absorbed from HSBC.

“As far as new business generation, we’ve had a dramatic increase in the pipeline of business that’s come into the bank, both in small business and in business banking. Early returns are that the pipelines are growing very quickly.”

— David Ring “I think what we saw with HSBC was, being a big, global bank there was less on-the-ground decision-making that could happen,” he said. “That was one of the limitations of the relationship before, whereas now it seems like the emphasis for First Niagara is enabling the people in the branch to make decisions” on loan applications and other financing areas.

First Niagara announced in June its Hudson Valley business banking team would be led by Sara Tucker, who has 20 years of experience in the financial industry and was previously team leader for the upstate east division of HSBC’s business banking arm.

who’s who in banking

Westchester bank execs manage and monitor risk

BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

H

as your bank changed its risk management practices in the past year?

That was the question asked of top executives at several banks in Westchester County. Here are their responses, together with their biographical sketches.

Richard Barry, executive vice president and chief risk officer, First Niagara Financial Group: “First Niagara’s approach to risk management has

remained consistent throughout our history. We continuously employ industry and regulatory risk management best practices, while maintaining a risk appetite that allows us to balance strong growth with best-in-class asset quality.”

Barry has oversight of all risk-related functions at First Niagara Financial Group.

He joined the company in January, bringing with him more than 25 years of credit and banking experience, most recently with Citizens Financial Group, where he was chief credit officer for wholesale banking and also served as market executive for the company’s Connecticut region. Prior to Citizens, Barry held a series of leadership positions in lending and credit with BayBank and Fleet.

He earned a bachelor’s degree in finance

from Bentley University and an M.B.A. from Babson College. A New England native and a resident of Connecticut, Barry is based in First Niagara’s New England Regional Market Center in New Haven, Conn.

Louis J. Cappelli, chairman of Sterling Bancorp and its Sterling National Bank: “Sterling has effective risk management practices in place to address a dozen distinct areas of potential risk, ranging from credit risk, to interest rate risk, to market risk and

Moody’s move ill-timed?

member of the Women’s Fund of the Greater Capital Region, Mahoney is a former board member of the United Way of Northeastern New York, where she served on the Executive and Finance Committees, St. Pius X School (Loudonville, N.Y.), and Albany Institute of History and Art. She is an alumna and former co-chairwoman of the Albany-Colonie Chamber of Commerce Capital Leadership Program. Mahoney and her family have recently relocated to Westchester County.

John M.Tolomer, president and CEO, The Westchester Bank (TWB): “Risk Management for a commercial bank is an ongoing process.

We constantly evaluate all areas of risk, ensuring our team members have the resources necessary to serve our customers’ banking needs while protecting the assets of the bank. I believe it is imperative a bank set their parameters, constantly evaluate their performance against the parameters and enhance the process to meet the new challenges presented by a more complex environment.”

Tolomer joined TWB in November 2008 and has steered the growth of the bank to reach assets of more than $240 million by its third anniversary. Tolomer has worked in the commercial banking field since 1977.

He worked for Citibank and The Bank of New York for more than 25 years and served in various senior management positions in both commercial and retail banking. In 2003, Tolomer joined Commerce Bank to spearhead its expansion into the Westchester market where he was responsible for rapidly building a strong franchise for the bank. In 2005, he was named president of commerce/ Florida and was responsible for establishing the Florida market. A proponent of community involvement, Tolomer is currently co-chairman of the March of Dimes March for Babies Westchester Walk and member of the board of directors for the Hudson River Museum. Tolomer has also been a past member of the board of directors of the Westchester County Association, The Leukemia Society and the United Way. He also served in an advisory capacity to FoodPatch and Leake and Watts. Tolomer is a lifelong resident of Westchester County and resides in Chappaqua with his wife and two daughters.

fter Moody’s downgraded 15 major banks on June 21, the debate began.

Should banks’ credit ratings be cut now, while the industry is in somewhat better shape and the economy perhaps more stable than it was last year or the year before?

Is now a bad time to lower ratings, while banks are trying to raise capital with DoddFrank regulations and the Volcker Rule looming?

Or was Moody’s action a catch-up move, something that should have been done years ago, before the financial crisis began?

“The rating agencies have had a reaction to criticism they’ve endured for not being fast enough in spotting problems in asset-

“

backed securities, for example,” said Chip MacDonald, a lawyer at Jones Day in Atlanta whose practice focuses on litigation and regulation of financial institutions. “Now they’re going the other way, trying to be too conservative. The industry is certainly in much better shape than it was; both the economy and earnings have been improving.”

MacDonald said part of Moody’s concern reflects the effects of legislation and regulation on the industry, and the risk that imposes. “It makes it harder and more expensive for these parties to finance themselves because of government regulation. Regulation is appropriate, but I’m not sure the regulation we’ve added is completely necessary and effective in solving risk.”

MacDonald, whose firm has relationships with Citigroup and Bank of America, two

banks hardest hit by Moody’s downgrading, said internal control might be more effective.

“Banks are in the business of intermediating risk. They take risks and make returns due to the risk they take. Those things can be addressed by internal controls without the Dodd-Frank regulations.”

Danielle Tierney, capital markets analyst at Aite Group in Boston, said it’s hard to contest the view “that banks should have been downgraded a while ago, that they were posting higher ratings than they should have a while ago. However, it’s true that the actual capital ratios and certain controls that banks have have gotten better in response to public outrage. Bank of America can say they have record capital ratios but they can’t quantify how strong their corporate governance and risk management are.”

I expected greater things from my bank – and I got them!

I own a local business and I expect a lot – that’s why I now work exclusively with Greater Hudson Bank. My expectations were met on my initial meeting with Sean Henderson, my lender.

Small is big advantage for Hudson bank

or many, 40 is the age of reckoning, when the mid-life crises begin to take hold.

At Hudson Valley Bank, which in May celebrated its 40th anniversary, newly appointed CEO and President Stephen R. Brown admits the challenges are daunting, as the bank seeks to navigate an increasingly unfriendly regulatory environment and a still-sluggish economy.

Brown said the Yonkers bank, which primarily serves business clients, will stay true to its vision as a community bank with local roots. But, he added, if the company hopes to continue its strong run, it will need to adapt its specialties to the changing marketplace in the Hudson Valley and metro New York region.

“We do need to grow the business so we need to find areas that offer opportunities for us to generate more revenue,” Brown said. “In some cases we will need to re-engineer our skill sets and adapt our skills to meet the needs of the marketplace. So that takes an investment of our time, resources and training, which we are prepared to make.” brown Brown in May was appointed CEO and president of Hudson Valley Bank and its parent company, Hudson Valley Holding Corp., while James J. Landy, who had served as CEO since 2001, was appointed executive chairman following

the retirement of long-time chairman and founding member William E. Griffin.

After joining Hudson Valley Bank in 1993, Brown was named senior executive vice president and CFO in 2001. He has also served on the Hudson Valley Holding Corp. board of directors since 2001.

Brown inherits an institution that ranks among the region’s largest community banks, with more than $2.8 billion in assets, $2.4 billion in deposits and 36 branches in Westchester and Rockland counties, Fairfield County and New Haven County, Conn., the Bronx, Brooklyn and Manhattan.

Given the bank’s relatively small footprint compared to JPMorgan’s and Bank of America’s, Brown said the market opportunity is “tremendously strong” despite economic and regulatory challenges facing the

“We have a marketplace here with many large institutions … that tend to have trouble consistently servicing their customers,” Brown said. “And that’s where we can do well. We

“We don’t try to be all things to all people – we try to pick niches in a really, really big market in metro New York. It takes an investment in time and people on our part to understand the nuances of those businesses and their special needs.”

— Stephan R. Brown can pick up customers from other institutions that have become frustrated with how those institutions do business with their customers.”

Going forward, Brown said the management team will examine its niche industries to determine if there are other areas that can be explored.

Hudson Valley Bank currently specializes in serving legal practices, property managers and developers, nonprofits and public service companies such as hospitals and health care providers, in addition to serving general business and small business clients.

“We don’t try to be all things to all people – we try to pick niches in a really, really big market in metro New York,” Brown said. “It takes an investment in time and people on our part to understand the nuances of those businesses and their special needs.”

An area of growing importance for the bank will be forming business partnerships with companies that operate in the health care industry, he said.

“The medical field is a growing part of our economy,” Brown said. “We have an aging population in the New York metro area, so we’re taking the involvement we have now to a higher level with medical service providers, professional groups, transitional health care providers and the like.”

Hudson Valley Bank recently opened a second Rockland County branch, and Brown said more branch openings are likely.

Across the state border, Brown said the bank was satisfied with its physical presence in Fairfield County, adding that it now becomes “a matter of having the right number of people there.”

Doctor delivers comfort in a bag

I

t was 2006. Elizabeth Chabner Thompson, a radiation oncologist from Scarsdale with a family history of breast cancer going back to her great-grandmother, decided to have a prophylactic double mastectomy to avoid the same fate. Suffering the usual post-operative discomfort in recovery, she decided to do something about it.

After her operation, she returned to work part time at the plastic surgery practice of the doctors who operated on her. “I began to see that a lot of women were unsure about the recovery process, what they needed to do when they left the hospital,” said the 44-year-old Thompson. “So I started making up a tip sheet. I did this in the basement of my house for years. People said, ‘I want to give something to a friend as way of making it easier on her.’ The practice I worked for was thrilled.”

Thompson said she acted as a liaison, helping patients get ready for surgery and taking care of them afterward. “The doctors in the office loved it.”

It was in her basement in 2008 that Thompson came up with the idea of the “biffle bag.” The bag, named after her company, Best Friends for Life, or Bffl, would have everything someone might want or need after surgery – a way to organize papers, medical appointment cards, a waterless toothbrush, playing cards, note cards, thank-you notes, mints, candy, tissues, socks and grooming implements. “And earplugs,” said Thompson. “Sometimes it’s impossible to tune out the noise in the hospital.”

Thompson started her business in what she called “a crisis time in my house. My husband had lost his job. We had four kids between the ages of 5 and 9 and needed income. I was working part time in radiation oncology and plastic surgery practices. It was a very busy few years. But sometimes in the busiest times that’s when ideas really crystallize.”

Thompson questioned why patients, despite advances in surgical procedures, still were wearing the 1970 model surgical bra. She decided to create not only the biffle bag, but a new line of surgical bras.

In 2010, she spent months “schlepping through the garment district” working with fabrics and sample makers and sourcing items for the bags and bras. She developed four bras, one named after her and used after breast implant reconstruction, and the others named for the great-grandmother, grandmother and mother with breast cancer in her family and used after radiation treatments. The Bessie bra, named after her great-grandmother, has pockets for prosthetics or icepacks, used by many women undergoing radiation.

Thompson formed her limited liability company, Bffl Co., in March 2011. Her out-of-pocket start-up expenses were “a couple of hundred thousand dollars,” she said.

All bags are assembled at the company’s 173 Summerfield St. office in Scarsdale and are sold in retail stores and hospitals. As of May, the three-employee company was making about 300 bags a month. This June was the best month to date for sales, said Thompson.

Thompson said she has had offers from investors who want an equity share in the business. “But I always refuse. I am the sole equity holder. I don’t want to sell out.”

Usually, she said, people who come up with ideas like hers “sell out to big companies – a bra manufacturer who has never been in an operating room, and the company designs it. And it doesn’t end up being what really has to be brought to market.

Dr. Elizabeth C. Thompson with her comfort bags for post-surgical patients at Bffl Co. in Scarsdale.

The biffle bag for traumatic brain injury

The sky’s the limit as to what we can do in the operating room but it’s what happens after that that needs to catch up.”

Bffl also makes bags for post-surgical patients recovering from traumatic brain injury and from ovarian or other women’s cancers and gynecological surgeries.

The comfort bag for brain-injury patients “has a foam grip so patients can use it when they’re re-learning how to grip a fork or a pen,” she said. “It’s hard to regain fine motor skills.” The pack also includes a white board communicator, “so patients can communicate basic commands by pointing to a picture,” said Thompson, and a gait belt for those learning to walk again. There are also concentration games to redevelop mental acuity.

Thompson plans to add to her product line a bag for Caesarean section patients – “I don’t want to talk about that one yet” – and a bag for men recovering from prostate cancer surgery.

Breast-cancer patients’ bags are priced at $100 retail, ovar-

The biffle bag for chemotherapy patients

ian bags at $110 and brain injury bags at $120. Thompson said 15 percent of the net profit from sales is donated to a foundation related to the disease or injury for which the patient was treated.

The comfort bags are an especially useful service now, she said, when patients return home after outpatient mastectomies or only short hospital stays and have little follow-up care. “Actually, as it stands now, patients have the right to stay in the hospital for 24 hours,” she said. “But even at that, anesthesia has not worn off and they’re on pain medication on top of that.”

This whole chapter of her life is somewhat ironic, said the enterprising physician.

“Funny thing,” she said. “I went through the surgery because I thought that it would put to rest my overwhelming concern about breast cancer. But it has become the focus of my work and my passion to help others by bringing them the little comforts.”

SECTION : TITLE

Experience leadership and ethics education based on the Army’s leadership framework of “Be, Know, Do” by bringing your team to the inspirational venue of The Historic Thayer Hotel at West Point The Thayer Leader Development Group (TLDG) was founded in 2010 and is based at the Historic Thayer Hotel at West Point. Dr. Karen Kuhla, Executive Director of Education, joined TLGD from GE, where she led global leadership development programs. Dr. Kuhla has assembled a world-class faculty to teach leadership and ethics based on the Army's leadership framework of “Be, Know, Do” to help develop full-time leaders of character.

Almost all faculty are West Point graduates, have deep military experience and Ph.Ds, and are well-known authors and experts in their respective disciplines.

“The training and development conducted by TLDG was truly outstanding. All of us came away energized by what we learned and ready to take on the next leadership challenge.

The topics taught were impactful, and the instructors were inspiring. I highly recommend this program for anyone looking to invest in the leadership development of their team.” �Joe DePinto, Ceo, 7-Eleven

The combined efforts of Dr. Kuhla and her world-class team have earned TLDG the honor of being ranked as one of the top 50 large leader development consulting companies, along with such organizations as Korn/Ferry, Ken Blanchard, Deloitte/ Leadership, Goldman Sachs Group, IBM, and Accenture.

TLDG has hosted over 100 corporate, non-profit, and educational organizations, by offering both customized and open-enrollment programs to over 3,500 leaders and students of leadership, at all levels. Many clients have limited military experience and most have preconceived opinions of what leadership is like in the military. Feedback from after-action reviews and assessments have shown that the training is consistently considered the best they have ever received, and they have a newly gained perspective and respect for our U.S. military and its leadership.

“I cannot tell you enough how much I support TLDG. The lessons, fully grounded in the latest leadership research and combat-tested, are lessons not only relevant but desperately needed in corporate America! Values-based leadership...it is sorely lacking and in my opinion only one institution can credibly deliver that message.”

–Stephen Cannon, CEO, Mercedes-Benz, USA

All groups receive a customized experience, based on a unique 4-pronged approach to development. Programs can include any combination of the offerings. You may experience academic excellence in the classroom, around topics one would expect to hear about developing leaders of character, along with experiential learning activities such as crewing on the Hudson River, staff rides of the Battle of Stony Point, and orienteering. Clients are offered the opportunity to have retired General Officers (West Point graduates) serve as full-time mentors/facilitators through the Senior Advisor Program. Also available is a stellar cadre of Keynote Speakers who provide compelling, inspirational addresses, with messaging specific to your objectives. Programs can range from 1 day to 1 week or more, over the course of multiple months. The decision is yours.

“There is nothing more important to P&G’s continued success than the development of strong leaders with character, values, and capabilities required to lead. And your team’s personal commitment to tailoring this event to our unique needs is what made it work...Thank you for a truly outstanding experience.”

–Robert McDonald, Chairman & CEO, Procter & Gamble
