Convocation
Convocation – Tuesday, August 15 @ 1:30 pm – Joe Neely
“The Danger of Politicizing the FDIC and Why Every Banker Should Care”
Since its founding almost 90 years ago, the FDIC has basically remained an independent organization free from political influence and maneuvering. It is critical that the FDIC be allowed to operate independently and efficiently in carrying out its primary critical mission. Recent developments within the FDIC boardroom should be a source of great concern to bankers and depositors alike. The banking industry has a great deal at stake in this matter and should demand that the FDIC’s independence be restored and maintained.
