sked why he follows the nuances of health care reform so acutely, Norwalk-based Pierson & Smith senior account executive Michael Kedersha didn’t mince words: “My clients need to know.” What they need to know remains in flux, as evidenced by the federal government’s delay of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act’s provision for employer-based coverage. Those with more than 50 employees have an extra year to comply, but Kedersha, whose financial management company just celebrated 60 years in business, saw deeper meaning in the delay. “They’re acknowledging it doesn’t work,” he said. “Why rush something this major? “They need to repeal it all,” he said. “Dissecting it part by part is going to be difficult.” Across the border in New York, however, a former state senator from Manhattan, John Ravitz, who serves as point person on the Affordable Care Insurance, page 6

Taxing decision Private entities on public land a focus in Rye By MarK LuNGarieLLo mlungariello@westfairinc.com

SeASiDe JoHnnie’S ReSTAuRAnT offers a public benefit and should be taken back off the tax rolls, a judge has ruled. The seasonal restaurant sits on a scenic slice of Rye Town Park, overlooking Oakland Beach and the Long Island Sound. Although it is privately owned, it rests on public land and should be reinstated as a tax exempt parcel, according to a 25-page state Supreme Court ruling from Judge Bruce Tolbert. Rye Town Park is operated jointly by the

town of Rye and city of Rye, two separate municipalities sharing the same name. The ruling means the city will have to pay the town roughly $27,000 in refunded property taxes and interest. Seaside’s lease states that the owners of the property, not the lessee, are responsible for any taxes levied. Ironically, if the city assessor’s ruling had held, the city, as a joint operator of the park, would effectively have taxed itself. Paul Noto, attorney for the town, disagreed with the city’s stance that the restaurant should be taxed the same as any eateries on Purchase Street, in the heart of the city’s downtown, was Taxing, page 6

The hard work of retirement

Across 70 years, Pentegra succeeds in a sector fraught with complexity By BiLL FaLLoN bfallon@westfairinc.com

F

our-thousand companies, banks, trade groups and credit unions – ranging from three employees to 5,000 – avoid managing the retirement plans they offer. It’s better, they reason, to master widgets or mortgages than to engage the complexities of institutional retirement management. Instead, those 4,000 entities entrust some $8 billion of their workers’ retirement funds to a White Plains company celebrating 70 years this month: Pentegra Retirement Services. Pentegra manages accounts in 46 states, writing 13,000 individual retirement benefit checks every month. In a one-hour conversation with management, there was no mention of retirement’s rocking chairs and never-ending golf, only of how to get there so a rocker and putter await. New CEO and President John Pinto, who fills the leadership shoes of justretired Robert Albanese, and Richard Rausser, senior vice president for client services, identified a corporate culture with integrity built in as something of a middle name. “Pentegra” is a portmanteau of pension and integrity and a point of inhouse pride since an employee thought of it as part of a 1993 rebranding, besting the pros from Madison Avenue. In 1943, Pentegra was known as The Savings Association Retirement Fund, managing the retirement plans of the Federal Home Loan Banks System. True to the times, the products were definedbenefit pensions. In 1970, it formed a companion to sell 401(k) and savingsplan products and management services. In 1982, it operated under two names: Financial Institutions Retirement Fund and the Financial Institutions Thrift Plan, known awkwardly as FIRF and FITP. Twenty years ago, the more-encompassing Pentegra banner appeared and shows no signs of waning. “With a breadth of products under a

single umbrella, we’ve created one-stop shopping,” Pinto said. “The equation is working; many of our clients have multiple plans with us.” Pentegra employs 260 people. Besides its 40,000-square-foot White Plains headquarters, it operates offices in Shelton, Conn.; North Carolina, South Carolina, Ohio and Vermont. Without committing to a date, Pinto would like to add to the already-established offices with a California office. “A key to our longevity, I believe, is that unlike an investment firm, mutual fund or insurance company, Pentegra has always offered an unbiased approach to retirement plan management, free of proprietary fund requirements,” Pinto said. “We work directly with companies to structure the best plan based on specific objectives and tailored to business needs.” Pinto said there has been a move away from defined benefits toward basic savings 401(k) plans and matching employer/ employee plans. As such, he said, “There

has been a shift from employer to employee and retirement now is more the responsibility of the employee.” Citing variables like interest rates and investment returns, Rausser said, “Expenses with defined benefit packages can be volatile and CFOs do not like volatility.” Rausser also focused on recent economics and how they affected companies’ exodus from defined benefit plans. “Markets were down. Assets were down. Liabilities were up. It was a perfect storm leading to volatility all over the map,” he said. Another reason factored changes in tax

law that gravitated toward numbing, but which remade retirement management. Rausser’s tax anecdote demonstrated why the institutional retirement universe is no place for the uninformed. No matter the plan, Pentegra engages in fiduciary outsourcing. “Our true expertise,” Rausser said. “We take that responsibility. We assume it. We make it easier for companies to run their plans.” Yet even in the current recovery, “It’s a more challenging environment than it was 10 years ago,” Pinto said. One truth leaps from corporate retirement ledgers to the front porch rocking chair: plan early. “If you start late you have a lot of catching up to do,” Pinto said, ideally before constraints of schools, mortgages and caring for elderly parents begin. “If they get used to contributing, they’ll be used to living within their budgets when these responsibilities arise.” In April the company broadened its outreach by publishing “My Business is My Main Asset. I Want to Retire. Now What? A Business Owner’s Guide to the Best Plan” by Mary Read, national director of pension and protection planning for the Pentegra division Alliance Benefit Group-Pentegra and national chairwoman for the Qualified Section of the Society of Financial Service Professionals. After an hour with Pinto and Rausser, the book seems less surprising. “Everything we do in some way or another revolves around retirement,” Pinto said. Pentegra celebrates its septuagenarian status with an open house and reception Wednesday, July 17, 3-6 p.m., at its 108 Corporate Park Drive headquarters, fourth floor.

Court puts payroll tax back on track By JoHN GoLDeN jgolden@westfairinc.com

W

estchester County officials and municipal allies are mulling their options in the wake of a recent appellate court ruling that the widely opposed Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) payroll tax on employers in the region is constitutional. Enacted in 2009, the tax – up to 34 cents per $100 of payroll for employers with annual payrolls of more than $1.25 million – has been strongly opposed by business groups and municipal officials in the 12-county MTA commuter region. The court ruling keeps in place a state levy for which business owners this year filed protective income tax refund claims after a lower court ruled in August 2012 that the law was unconstitutional. That earlier decision sprang from a 2010 lawsuit led by Long Island’s Nassau County and joined by Westchester, Putnam and Suffolk counties, the Orange County Chamber of Commerce and more than a dozen towns and villages in the region. A state Supreme Court justice in Nassau County ruled that the special law enacting the tax required a home-rule message of

support from affected local governments because it did not apply to all of the state. The state has continued to collect the MTA tax from employers during the appeals process. Officials at the state Department of Taxation and Financial Services last fall said they expected the law to be upheld on appeal. State Appellate Division judges in Brooklyn on June 26 reversed the lower court judgment and declared the MTA Employer Tax Law constitutional. Because it provides a funding source for essential transit and transportation services in the metropolitan region, it serves a “substantial state concern” and therefore is exempt from the home-rule message requirement, the court ruled. MTA spokesman Aaron Donovan said the authority was “pleased” with the appellate decision. He said the tax “provides more than $1.2 billion per year to fund the region’s railroads, subways and buses – the backbone of the region’s economy.” Eliminating that revenue “would have had a catastrophic impact on the region’s 8.5 million daily transit riders,” he said. In Mineola, Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano pledged to continue the fight to eliminate the payroll tax. “The tax is overburdensome, unfair and we will be appealing the ruling,” he said in a statement.

“It costs Westchester County millions of dollars a year and represents yet another unfunded mandate.” — George Oros

In White Plains, George Oros, chief of staff to Westchester County Executive Robert P. Astorino, said Astorino “is disappointed in the court’s decision. He has always opposed this imposition of this tax. It costs Westchester County millions of dollars a year and represents yet another unfunded mandate.” Oros said the county attorney is reviewing the decision and will consult with Nassau County on “the next steps.”

USTA ups prize money for the Open By Georgette Gouveia ggouveia@westfairinc.com

T 2012 US Open men’s champion Andy Murray

July 15, 2013 • WCBJ

he US Open, which always brackets Labor Day during its two-week run, will be particularly good to laborers with names like Andy Murray, Serena Williams and Novak Djokovic this year. The United States Tennis Association,

which owns and operates the US Open, has approved a multimillion-dollar increase in prize money as well as a schedule that will give the final four men and women a respite between the semifinals and the finals. “So not only a day off but a raise,” jokes David Brewer, the Open’s tournament director and the chief professional tennis officer for the USTA, headquartered in Harrison. After five straight years in which Mother Nature pushed the men’s finals to a Monday, the Open, which is slated to begin Aug. 26, is taking an “if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em” attitude and officially scheduling the men’s final for Monday, Sept. 9 at 5 p.m. Brewer already knows what you’re thinking and the answer is this creates the most equitable schedule for the final four, with the women having a day of rest between their semifinals on Friday and final on Sunday, and the men getting a day off between their semifinals on Saturday and the Monday final. As for the base prize money, the USTA has raised it to more than $33.6 million, a more than $8.1 million increase over the $25.5 million awarded to players last year. (The USTA will provide $50 million in Open prize money by 2017.) This has been a subject near and dear to the heart of Roger Federer, who as president of the Association of Tennis Professionals’ Player Council, the men’s governing body, has pushed for more prize money, particularly for those who lose in the early rounds. In a written statement, Federer says, “The excellent outcome for the sport of tennis wouldn’t have been possible without the open-mindedness and fairness of USTA President Dave Haggerty and the USTA staff. They approached our concerns with a true spirit of partnership …Everyone I have spoken with is excited about the increases in prize money, as well as the agreement to change the schedule for 2015 and beyond.” Ah, yes, 2015 and more big changes. The men’s final returns to Sunday afternoon, with the women’s semifinals on Thursday and final on Saturday and the men’s semifinals on Friday. Plus, adios, CBS: All of the action will be carried exclusively on ESPN in the States. “It wasn’t an easy decision,” says Brewer, who stresses the USTA’s respect for and long history with the Eye Network. “But there’s an advantage to having one domestic broadcaster…. No one is bigger and better than ESPN.” For more, visit usopen.org.


Ossining focuses on downtown revitalization Community aims to attract young professionals, small businesses

BY CRYSTAL KANG ckang@westfairinc.com

W

hen Mayor Bill Hanauer first moved to Ossining 17 years ago, he saw the potential for revitalization in a village filled with lots left vacant by fleeing shopping centers and automobile-related businesses such as a Ford dealership that outpaced small businesses for the past 50 years. Soon after, vacant spaces became parking lots and the village faced the challenges of attracting small family-run businesses and making Ossining a desirable location to live for young professionals. Last summer, The Business Council’s Westchester Coalition for Business Development conducted a Youth Flight study focused on creative solutions to retain young professionals in Westchester County. In June, the study identified Ossining as an ideal place to start the revitalization process. With its expansive waterfront view, spacious parks, empty lots and a supportive local government, all signs pointed to using Ossining as a pilot community. “Our primary goal was to really look at how to keep our young people in Westchester County,” Marsha Gordon, president and CEO of the council, said. “We interviewed college students, people who live here and people who work here, and the feedback we got was that as long as there are opportunities for young people – like parks, transit-oriented developments, affordable housing and jobs – they will stay.” In 2010, the population in the village of people ages 20 to 44 shrank 5 percent compared to 2000, dipping from 10,922 to 10,231 and reflecting a 6 percent population drop, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Westchester County’s young population similarly dropped five percent from 280,500 in 2000 to 240,997 in 2010 despite a 3 percent population increase over those 10 years. Currently, Ossining is entertaining the idea of bringing affordable housing to young professionals, commercial spaces to small businesses and public squares and restaurants to the community in order to revive the village’s economy. “We looked at a new comprehensive and zoning plan with the idea of attracting new and current residents to the downtown,” Hanauer said. “We’re deeply involved in redevelopment and encouraging transit-oriented development in the downtown area and encouraging housing over restaurants and commercial spaces.” For long-time Ossining residents like Hanauer, coming up with the blueprints for

revitalizing the downtown were a long time coming. The mayor mentioned that once the redevelopment projects began, more businesses started coming to the village. A new Latin restaurant plans to open on Main Street near the Kennan House restaurant, which just opened in April. “As we see a critical mass of people living downtown, we’ll see more businesses open,” Hanauer said. “These are businesses that cater not only to Ossining but to neighboring communities.” The village hired the Downtown Revitalization Group to identify sites in the community that have development potential. Three commercial projects are under review in the downtown area, including two parking lots adjacent to a post office and a market square property. One property, a mixed-used complex, which will combine retail businesses with 31 residential units, received its building permit July 11. Two market-rate residential complexes, Avalon and Harbor Square, are under renovation with plans to open within 3 years. “The Downtown Revitalization Group can provide potential scenarios for developments,” said Ingrid Richards, manager of Ossining’s downtown and economic development. “From that report, we’ll send it out to the developers who may be able to answer our RSP (Repositories Support Project) and develop the site, which are all village owned.” Avalon, a $14 million project with 168 residential units and office spaces, is estimated to range in rental price from $2,000 to $2,500 per unit, Richards said. Harbor Square, a 188-unit market-rate residential development, will receive board approval for site planning and special residential permits by August. The Harbor Square developer plans to capitalize on its waterfront location. The third project underway is a $2.1 million mixed-used development with 31 residential units on top and a restaurant on the bottom. A total of 300 units could become available in the next year, Richards said. “It’s only been a few weeks since the study came out, but we’re doing a lot of mixed-used developments and creating opportunities for people who want to be young entrepreneurs,” Richards said. “We’re providing young people with potential office and retail spaces, which give them opportunities to live and work and play.” The Board of Trustees will continue reviewing its list of potential development sites in work sessions throughout this summer and determine the timeline for when projects will move forward.

Act for The Business Council of Westchester, said his informational role continues. “There is some breathing room,” he said, but he does not foresee repeal and noted: “A year goes by very quickly.” Both New York and Connecticut are using federal money to establish health marketplaces set to open Oct. 1. Thirteen additional states and the District of Columbia are making marketplaces; the remainder will use a federal model. The full law had been set to go into effect Jan.1, 2014. Kedersha, who discussed the Affordable Care Act at a recent Business Council of Fairfield County event, said the year-long delay was a warning sign. “The delay of a year affects other elements,” he said. “Can the health exchanges offer viable and competitive products when the law is not applied to everyone? We need to take a deep breath; we need to test the system first. As much as they say they’re ready, the federal program is not ready.” “It was too big a change to get done with a seamless process,” said Ravitz, who serves as executive vice president and COO of The Business Council. “A year gives businesses with more than 50 employees more time, but there

is still a lot of information to take in. “Our immediate goal is the same as it has been since April 1,” he said. “We are meeting with people who do not know about the Oct. 1 exchange; talking about tax credits retroactive to 2010; determining what constitutes a full-time employee; and basic terminology like copays and deductibles. “Washington was hearing the law presented too much burden in the timeframe given,” Ravitz said. “It’s a relief for larger businesses, but I hope they’re not thinking it is never going to happen … unless they repeal the law. And I don’t think that will happen.” The National Federation of Independent Business’ director of federal public policy, Amanda Austin, said, “This is simply the latest evidence that implementation of this terrible law is going to be difficult if not impossible, and the burden is going to fall on the people who create American jobs. Temporary relief is small consolation. We need a permanent fix to this provision to provide long-term relief for small employers.” Amy Allen, managing director of advocacy and international trade for the Westchester County Association who also heads the association’s Healthcare Consortium, said, “The delay of the employer health care mandate is very good news for the business community and completely validates our position that the new

law and its regulations are unclear. “Business does not like uncertainty, and there is plenty of confusion to go around,” she said. “The Affordable Care Act law is thousands of pages long. On top of that, there are several thousand more pages of regulations from the IRS, Department of Labor and other agencies that business will have to comply with. “The business community needed a fighting chance and today the White House gave it to them,” she said. The Westchester County Association said it will continue to offer in-depth seminars on the Affordable Care Act for the entire business community. Its Healthcare Consortium – about 50 members total – includes hospitals, large physician groups, home care agencies, nursing homes, assisted living facilities, insurers, trade associations, academic institutions and business. In addition to holding bi-monthly workshops at the Business Council’s headquarters on Corporate Park Drive in White Plains, the Business Council is also offering the presentations through a partnership with the Westchester Library System. The Business Council will travel to local businesses upon request. Obama administration adviser Valerie Jarrett wrote in a blog quoted on the Connecticut Business and Industry Association

off base. A park commission made up of town and city elected officials has oversight of operation of the restaurant through writing its lease and from approving the prices the facility charges for food and beverages. “The City Council doesn’t get involved in menus, uniforms and pricing for the restaurants on Purchase Street,” Noto said. A snack bar or sand bar has operated tax-exempt on that property since 1907. Seaside Johnnie’s opened in 2000 and quickly became a popular destination restaurant during the summer months. With the new business model, city officials said, came more residents and traffic as well as an increased need for police, fire and sanitation services. The restaurant pays just under $100,000 a year, with its current lease set to expire 2016. The Supreme Court decision is sure to have ramifications in a growing debate about public property along the Sound Shore and the private partnerships that have sprung up in the last decade. Though being located on public land in itself is not enough to justify a tax exemption, there is case law in the favor of private ownership when the private enterprises are viewed as a benefit and don’t impede access to public land.

example of a public property leased to a private owner. Just down the boardwalk from Seaside Johnnie’s, on the property of Westchester County-owned Playland, is The Pier Restaurant and Tiki Bar. That restaurant, which is run by the same operator of Seaside Johnnie’s, John Ambrose, was sent a city tax bill and the county is due in court, fighting to reinstate the tax exempt status there. Westchester is in negotiating with a

group called Sustainable Playland to “reinvent” Playland and its boardwalk with other eateries and attractions. There is already talk in the city of Rye to issue Playland a property tax bill if the deal comes to fruition. City Mayor Douglas French, a Republican who also sits on the Rye Town Park Commission, said he didn’t understand that logic. “Why would we, even before it is developed, talk about taxing these places?” he said. French had lobbied

This allows employers the time to test the new reporting systems and make any necessary adaptations to their health benefits while staying the course toward making health coverage more affordable and accessible for their workers.”

to have an “impact fee” charged to the properties rather than issue a tax bill. He hoped his colleagues on the City Council would decide not to appeal the decision. “It was silly from the start,” he said. “I thought it was a huge mistake.” City Councilman Joe Sack, a Republican and known rival of French, said that the decision wasn’t the end of the story. Sack, who is an attorney by trade, said he hoped his colleagues would agree they should appeal the decision. If the city opts to appeal, it would have six months to determine its arguments. “I totally get that the town of Rye and the county of Westchester don’t want to pay taxes and they are going to do whatever they can to not pay taxes, but at the end of the day what’s fair is fair and the law is the law,” Sack said. “I would hope that we’re all able to resist any urge to give away the store and rush to some sort of outcome that may be undesirable.” Donna Greene, a spokeswoman for County Executive Rob Astorino’s office, said the operation of private entities on county land has always existed in Playland, including the likes of rides and shooting galleries. For example, there are privatelyrun concession stands on premises including a Burger King. She said the Seaside Johnnie’s ruling emphasized the position that was a benefit to the community. “It’s good news…we hope it sets a precedent,” she said.


Westchester business leaders’ confidence remains stable BY CRYSTAL KANG ckang@westfairinc.com

W

estchester business leaders are cautiously optimistic about the business climate with their confidence level remaining steady over the past 12 months, according to a new survey by The Business Council of Westchester. The Westchester Business Confidence Index in the second quarter of 2013 dropped to 58.5 out of 100 from 65.9 in the second quarter last year and 65.8 in this year’s first quarter.

“The way businesses see it, if their lights are still on, they’ve survived the Great Recession and they’ve figured out now how to make their businesses work in this new economy.” — Ted Miller

The Business Council views the numbers as positive after the index hit 27 in 2008, when the survey was first given to business leaders in the county. “We really have to go back to that point of time to realize how shaken the business community was back then,” said Ted Miller, president of DataKey Consulting L.L.C., a management consulting company. “In general a score of 60 across business owners is not bad given this new norm … The way businesses see it, if their lights are still on, they’ve survived the Great Recession and they’ve figured out now how to make their businesses work in this new economy.” The national hiring rate stayed relatively unchanged, but job openings increased in several industries including retail trade, transportation, warehousing, utilities, finance and insurance. While jobs in business services decreased nationally, jobs in Westchester County’s business services sector increased. “There’s some hiring going on,” Miller said. “Productivity is way up. Profitability is up, too. Businesses in general need money to be able to invest. If they can maintain money to their bottom line over a period of quarters and years, they’re then able to invest in capital equipment and then into future hiring. Productivity has been a huge gain driven by technology to be more efficient with the people you have. Good management of business drives profitability.” Westchester County reported an unem-

ployment rate of 6.1 percent in April, which rose one-tenth of a percentage point in May. Marsha Gordon, president of the business council, noted Westchester’s numbers are still better than the national and state unemployment rates, which stand at 7.5 and 7.3 percent, respectively. “Rather than looking at specific points in time, we look at the trend,” Gordon said. “Sure there are fluctuations within the trend, but what we think is encouraging is that Westchester’s business climate is stable and consistent.” TWB A notable difference in the way business Devine/Healy Electric leaders in Westchester think is that there’s a WCBJ bigger push to retain young employees in the NEWSPRINT region as a means to hincrease efficiency and 7.375” w x 7.125” expand businesses. 3-4-13 “Retaining current young employees to maintain working environment is very important,” Gordon said. “Young employees are the lifeblood of a stable company.”

State’s roads a mess, but comparatively safe BY CRYSTAL KANG ckang@westfairinc.com

N

ew York’s state highway system ranked 45th in the nation, according to a recent annual highway report by Reason Foundation, an organization focused on policy research. Despite the potholes, the state’s roads are among the safest in the nation, with only six states possessing better fatality rates.

Comparatively, Connecticut’s roads ranked 44th and New Jersey’s ranked 47th. The categories that determined New York’s ranking included highway performance and efficiency. The report found that New York ranked 47th in deficient bridges, 46th in rural and urban interstate pavement condition, and 34th in urban interstate congestion. New York is crisscrossed with the 16th largest state-run highway system in the nation.

The report also revealed New York spent 2.6 times more on highway repairs than the national average per mile. Despite this, New York continues to rank as one of the bottom 10 in highway conditions across the last 13 years. The state’s Office of the Comptroller released a report last year addressing the growing “backlog of unmet public infrastructure needs” and attributed the lack of maintenance to “limited public funds.” Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli has

discussed using public-private partnerships to finance several unfunded construction projects. State Sen. Greg Ball has sought just such an arrangement, including for the nascent Tappan Zee Bridge remake. “Comptroller DiNapoli has warned that we have substantial unmet infrastructure needs in transportation and other areas, and has called for reforming our capital planning to make sure we are dealing with those needs as cost-effectively as possible,” said Mark Johnson, the comptroller’s deputy press secretary.

Home sales spiked “significantly” in the lower Hudson Valley, according to a new report. The report was conducted by the Hudson Gateway Association of Realtors, a nonprofit trade association representing more than 9,000 real estate professionals in Westchester, Putnam, Rockland and Orange counties. Transaction volumes increased 24 percent comparing sales in April through June this year to the same time last year and had the “highest second quarter posting since 2010,” the report stated. Westchester County saw a 23.8 percent increase in single-family home sales and a 27.8 percent jump in sales of cooperative units, according to the report. Putnam and Rockland counties gained 10.6 percent and 7.2 percent in singlefamily home sales, respectively. Orange County sales of single-family house sector jumped 34 percent, the highest percentage increase among the four counties. The Hudson Gateway Multiple Listing Service reported 3,445 closed residential transactions in Westchester, Putnam, Rockland and Orange counties, an increase from 2,263 closed transactions in the first quarter, according to the report. With home sales on the rise, Westchester’s median sale increased 5 percent to $650,000. Rockland and Putnam counties’ median prices rose 4.8 percent to $395,000 and 2.8 percent to $308,000, respectively. – Crystal Kang


Dodd-Frank: Too big to fail Delays plague rule-writing process

BY PATRICK GALLAGHER pgallagher@westfairinc.com

N

early three years after the DoddFrank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act was enacted, there are still vast portions of the law that have yet to be finalized in the form of regulations and implemented. The fate of some of its most prominent features – including a ban on proprietary trading by depository banks and its call to end the notion of “too big to fail” – still hang in the balance as regulators, lawmakers and the banks themselves have sought to influence the rule-writing process. As the July 21 anniversary of the bill’s signing approaches, we asked John Alan James, an authority in the field of regulatory affairs and compliance, to discuss what’s next for Dodd-Frank. James is executive director of Pace University’s Center for Global Governance, Reporting and Regulation, and designed the school’s Certified Compliance and Regulatory Professional certificate program. The following are excerpts from the conversation. Business Journal: What’s holding up Dodd-Frank? John Alan James: “Financial institutions have observed the third anniversary of the passage of Dodd-Frank with what can be described as an even greater degree of confusion than in the previous two years... “At the political level, in the U.S., U.K. and E.U., the inability of legislatures – split by party disagreements and under heavy pressure from banking lobbyists – to finalize the pending legislation that would define the role of trading and its relationship to basic banking functions is creating greater doubt and confusion. “For example, the so-called Volcker Rule (to re-establish Glass-Steagall Act) has made little if any progress. There appears to be little consensus within either party to move it forward. In addition, the federal courts have taken strong positions against regulatory agency rulings by demanding greater analyses of the ‘cost-benefit’ impact of their rulings. “Differences in approaches between major regulatory agencies also create confusion as to what the future may be. The arguments between the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) and CFTC (U.S. Commodities Future Trading Commission) have received criticism for the Financial Stability Oversight Board. The goal of the chairman of the CFTC to expand U.S. trading rules to foreign branches of U.S. banks and foreign banks licensed to do business

in the U.S. has angered both foreign governments and U.S. banks. Even some of the CFTC commissioners question both the chairman’s goals and particularly his tactics. None of this squabbling leads to greater confidence in the financial system or its future. “In summary, passage of the Dodd-Frank legislation created a complex and confused situation for financial institutions (especially for small and medium-size banks), regulators and the general public. Three years in, the situation has actually gotten worse and there are no bright clouds on the horizon.” Where does the rule-writing process stand? “The original Dodd-Frank bill, some 2,500 pages long, left the regulatory agencies to write the regulations. It is obvious that this has turned out to be a most difficult task. Since July 2010, regulatory agencies have put forth 279 suggested new regulations. Only 175 have passed and only 104 (37 percent) have become actively enforced. To add to the confusion, the agencies are less than halfway STAMFORD GRADUATE CENTER through the list of issues spelled out in the at Landmark Square basic legislation.” Some members of Congress, including Rep. Jim Himes, have sought to modify portions of Dodd-Frank. What is the likely outcome of these efforts? “Congressman Jim Himes, a Wall Street veteran, has attempted to clarify some of the issues by introducing new legislation. His major goal has been to enable institutions dealing in ‘swaps’ to have a clearer definition as to who is and who is not covered by the regulation of use of Federal Reserve funds. “The daily trading market in so-called derivatives can reach the trillion-dollar mark. Oversight at best is difficult. Himes is also STAMFORD GRADUATE CENTER at Landmark trying to clarify the role of theSquare new legislation permitting smaller firms to offer shares via the Internet. “There is little agreement between Republicans and Democrats in Congress on how to view the Dodd-Frank legislation to date, and, even greater disparity as to how to move forward. Republican calls for the ‘repeal’ of the entire bill are unrealistic (it includes 175 separate mandates).” What’s the likelihood of any major overhauls of Dodd-Frank by Congress? “Both political parties are now counting on having or taking over control of Congress in the 2014 elections. Republicans dream of maintaining control of the House and even the Senate. Little or nothing of substance appears to have much chance, repeal or the implementation of new regulations, during the present congressional setup.”

Time for a midyear checkup on finances Want to be sure that we show a profit this year. Know we can’t have both high profit and low taxes. Where is the balance? Need to be sure to show the bank improvement over 2012. What stats should we be watching?

THougHTS oF THe DAY: Building a successful company means that it is growing both revenue and profitability. Focus on building reserves and getting ratio improvements when comparing assets, liabilities and equity. As long as your company needs to borrow money, think of the bank as a partner that needs to be kept informed. When managing in a downturn, it’s essential to have an accurate picture of where the company is headed – immediately and midterm. Define any shortfall, rather than ignoring the problem, by comparing revenue forecast to expense budget. Do everything possible to reduce the shortfall to zero by cutting expenses and focusing on profitable revenue. Identify use of lines of credit and

other debt instruments to close any gaps. Figure out ahead of time if the company risks running out of cash. Be realistic. While the finance department is usually focused on reporting on historical performance and keeping controls in place, its greatest value comes from creating a goforward picture. Planning out the forecast of revenue and building an accurate expense budget is a way of showing everyone where the company is going in financial terms. Set revenue targets that everyone can agree on. Don’t over- or under-forecast. Use the budget to plan out critical expenditures needed to boost sales and marketing in order to get the company back on track for profitable growth. Look at crucial ratios that will determine whether or not the company can obtain additional financing. Compare current assets (cash, accounts receivable, inventory) to current liabilities (accounts payable, lines of credit, current year’s portion of long-term debt). The ratio needs to be 2-to-1 or higher. Next, take a look at debt-equity ratio. That needs to be under 2.5-to-1. Companies with the greatest difficulty meeting that ratio tend to be young, undercapitalized firms and

companies that have been taking losses for a long time. If the company is at or above 2.5 and there are no funds available from the owners, the company is going to have to make do with what it has available. It may also be at risk of having its lines called by the bank. Treat this situation very seriously by building a plan to boost profits and sales immediately, without taking on additional debt. Many times the debt-equity ratio is okay, but the current assets-current liabilities ratio is too low. If that is the case, consider terming out some of the credit line, thereby moving debt out of current liabilities, into long term. This move won’t affect the debt-equity ratio, but it will improve the ca-cl ratio. Once the company starts to produce profits, use the money to pay down debt and build reserves at the same time. One dollar goes to debt service, $1 into cash reserves. Building up cash reserves will give the company more room to maneuver than paying down debt alone. If the company is struggling, keep the bank informed. Banks don’t like surprises. They want to see an owner who is knowledgeable, forthright and working

to solve problems with the resources available. Demonstrate that by sharing plans and reporting with timely data. Ask the bank to meet with you, to review existing reports. Ask for their suggestions. What additional reports do they think you should be looking at? What ratios would they like to see? How often? They can be helpful if you open the door to a cooperative relationship and they may see things that you don’t. The best part: their advice is usually part of the package of services they offer, you might as well make use of it.

Stand-up comics

Archie gains a more relevant cousin BY CRYSTAL KANG ckang@westfairinc.com

I

f Nancy Silberkleit, co-CEO of Archie Comic Publications Inc. in Mamaroneck, can take a global enterprise and tack on a personal mission, so can millions of business women who want to discover their inner entrepreneur and then use it for good. Her advice? “Never let anyone define who they want you to be – you know who you are.” When Silberkleit inherited 50 percent of her husband’s comic book business – Archie Comics – in 2008, she wanted to take an educational approach to comics and illustrate modern-day themes of bullying, obesity, depression and suicide using the personal lives of Archie and his friends. However, her co-CEO Jonathan Goldwater, who inherited part of Archie Comics after his brother Richard Goldwater passed away within the same year as Silberkleit’s husband, had a different opinion. After courtroom sagas and numerous disagreements with Goldwater, Silberkleit decided to take matters into her own hands. She started her own comic book called Rise Above and incorporated her culturally relevant themes using her own resources, funding and publication. With the help of her daughter, accountant and a team of freelance artists and writers, Rise Above became a $20,000 investment that served as a public announcement for children who need guidance on how to deal with social pressures. “I was utilizing capabilities that I didn’t know existed until I tumbled into Archie Comics and went into publishing and further developed my talent and expertise,” Silberkleit said. “I tell women that it’s challenging to be an entrepreneur because you’re going to meet many adversaries.” Silberkleit knew she wanted to bring education into her comics once she discovered the power of the visual medium. But she couldn’t implement her ideas at Archie Comics even as the co-CEO. She then found the willpower to create her own brand and started her own foundation last November to help fund her comic book business. She discovered that her market is children and teens and she would access them through educational venues. Silberkleit received recognition through press releases and was invited to speak at several schools in Yonkers. She has attended conventions both nationally and globally to talk about being a female entrepreneur in the comic book business who wanted to bring social issues to the youth. Her comic book has reached people in Germany and India and regions of Africa. Her next step, however, involves a return to Riverdale High and Archie, taking the ageless teen and his friends to the Ministry of Education in China with the help of a company called Trajectory based in Boston. With 25 years of experience teaching art class in a New

Nancy Silberkleit

Jersey public school, Silberkleit discovered her passion for social issues related to children and learned to embrace that as a business woman. “Whenever I meet women in positions of leadership, I hear they’re minimized,” Silberkleit said. “It’s extremely challenging being pushed around, but it also pushes you to find a way around it and that’s the beauty of being an entrepreneur and fulfilling your dreams.” Most recently, Silberkleit created a documentary and

continues to attend business conferences where she speaks about her career in comic book making. She is determined to incorporate the theme of bullying and being gay and committing suicide in her next comic book. “As more people get to understand my mission – that comic books are an academic resource for communicating in this world – there will be more people who will utilize the graphic platform,” Silberkleit said. “It gives me more freedom to explore my passions in a deeper, thorough manner.” WCBJ • July 15, 2013

Top 10 things that great leaders do BY CHRIS SABIDO

G

16 July 15, 2013 • WCBJ

• They are authentic. Great leaders are themselves, instead of trying to be someone else. Their words and actions are congruent with what they think and feel on the inside and this builds tremendous confidence and trust with others. • They turn leadership on its head. Instead of seeing leadership as something that a few high-level executives are responsible for, they see leadership as a responsibility that everyone can share in. Great leaders ask everyone to speak up, look for ideas and recognize that others’ actions, no matter how small, directly contribute to the success or failure of the company. This provides greater creativity, innovation and problem-solving capability. It increases buy-in and engagement because people understand that they are not helpless drones and that they are directly contributing to the direction of the company. • They are curious. Great leaders understand that being able to see things from a different perspective allows them to discover hidden opportunities, find the best solutions to problems and innovate almost effortlessly. • They make room for others. Great leaders understand the importance of sharing the spotlight and making room for to grow, succeed and prosper. T: 7others in • They stay away from the ABCs.

Great leaders know that the ABCs – Avoiding, Blaming and Criticizing – spell death to any leader. The ABCs kill trust, commitment, morale and engagement, which in turn will kill productivity, innovation and profits. Avoiding things that need to be dealt with is the antithesis of leading. Blaming others destroys trust and prevents the real solution to a problem from being uncovered. Criticizing others never works…not even when it’s so-called “constructive criticism.” •They manage energy. Great leaders understand the importance of managing energy – their own energy and that of others. They are constantly in tune with what’s going on in the organization, making sure that energy is directed in the right direction and that the organization is neither overlycomfortable nor on the verge of burnout. Chris Sabido is a co-founder of Emerge, a Westchester-based leadership and team development firm that helps companies bring out the best in their people. The firm focuses on three key principles – emotional intelligence, intelligent communication and team bonding – and has tackled challenging people issues and established permanent solutions for global brands, nonprofits and leadership institutes.

reat leaders understand that the only way for a team or company to reach its full potential is to bring out the best in all of the people that work in the organization. When they are able to help others be their best, things that all companies seek – increased profits, passion, engagement, creativity and innovation – naturally emerge. So, how does a leader bring out the best in others? It starts with having emotional intelligence. More than just “people skills,” emotional intelligence is a powerful awareness about ourselves and others. It gives us the ability to choose new ways of handling difficult situations and to break free of old habits of thinking and acting, which don’t produce the results we want. When emotional intelligence is high, the tremendous amount of team energy that is wasted on things such as miscommunication, misunderstandings, ego trips, unresolved tension and conflict is freed up and can be redirected toward productive, effective endeavors. Here are a few things that great leaders can do to help develop emotional intelligence: • They have the courage to look at themselves honestly. Blind spots and those not-so-helpful behaviors that show up when they’re triggered; great leaders will look at it all. Rather

than shy away from their less-flattering moments and make excuses, they accept what they see. When they see something they don’t like, they look for a better way of doing it. • They deal with the “messy stuff” that others avoid. People often like to think of business as logical, rational and unemotional. Nothing can be further from the truth. The feelings and emotions that we all experience as part of being human pop up at work the same way they do at home. Great leaders know that for any group of people to maximize their potential, they must all learn to effectively deal with the messy, human side of the business. • They build trust. Trust is the cornerstone of every healthy, productive and profitable relationship. Great leaders understand this. They know that their words and actions are either building or eroding trust, and they act accordingly. When trust is eroded, they act quickly to repair it so that everyone can get back on track. • They are willing to be vulnerable. They know they don’t have all the answers; they don’t always have to be right. This invites the people they work with to be the same way, thereby relieving the crippling pressure to be perfect and never make a mistake from all those involved in the workplace.

ACURA OF WESTCHESTER received Friends of Karen’s

Corporate Partner Award at the charity’s gala benefit “Celebration on the Sound” at Mamaroneck Beach & Yacht Club. The charity, which provides comprehensive support – at no cost – to families caring for a child with a lifethreatening illness, is celebrating its 35th anniversary. “It’s an honor to accept the Corporate Partner Award and we look forward to continuing our support for this wonderful organization,” said Alex Muscarella, Acura of Westchester’s owner. “They put a lot of heart and soul into what they do, that’s why we stay so involved.” Kenneth Hicks, Acura of Westchester general manager said, “They’re doing things that no other organization is doing – and they’re making a real difference in people’s lives.”

years

The event raised $340,000, which will benefit the hundreds of children battling cancer and other life-threatening illnesses in the tristate area whose families turn to Friends of Karen for help. The charity was founded out of the kindness of one friend toward another. Sheila Petersen of Croton Falls raised funds from the community to help Barbara and Angus MacInnes care for their daughter Karen at home, so the family could spend the rest of Karen’s short life together. A touching and uplifting film about Friends of Karen children and their families, “More Time To Love,” was premiered at the gala. “Friends of Karen started with one child, Karen, and her family,” said Judith Factor, the charity’s executive director. “Since then, we’ve touched the lives of more than 12,400 children. That’s something to celebrate.” From left, Ken Hicks and Alex Muscarella

Children who go through the adult system, on the other hand, are more likely to re-offend and are at a higher risk of violence. “At ages 16 and 17, young people are, in fact, still children. Research has shown that important areas of the brain that control decision-making and impulse control are not fully developed until the age of 25,” said Cora Greenberg, executive director of the Westchester Children’s Association.

WEE ZEE WORLD OF “YES I CAN!” at 480 Bedford Road in

Chappaqua, one year after its grand opening, has made significant staff changes, as well as created a host of new programs, including the opening of a WeeZee-style gym in Kuwait later this year. “This is all according to the master plan I’ve been preparing over an intensive 30-year period,” said Louise Weadock, founder and president of WeeZee World of “Yes, I Can!” “My vision for WeeZee is to become a global model for providing children with the ideal sensory play experience that is scientifically proven to improve their academic, athletic and social performance. WeeZee provides an 18,000-square-foot interactive clinical research environment for observing children at play within a variety of situations and the largest selection of neuro-cognitive fitness equipment in our sensory gym.” Design plans for a sensory gym similar to WeeZee have already begun in Kuwait. ALEx BRILL, previously a sensory manager at WeeZee, has assumed a new role in WeeZee’s global business development to collaborate with Center 21, a new nonprofit organization dedicated to the care and betterment of families with special-needs children located in Kuwait.
