Smart Strategies for Building Profitable Branches in Low-Income Communities
Choosing the right location for a branch is a big decision for any bank or credit union. It’s about more than just convenience—branches are a way to connect with the community, support local needs, and, for banks, meet CRA requirements. But opening and maintaining a branch in low-income neighborhoods can be tough. It’s often difficult to make a branch profitable in these areas, even though the need for access to financial services is high.
Join us on November 21st at 12 pm CT to hear from Steven Reider at Bancography. In this webinar, Steven will explore branch service models that make a real difference in lower-income communities, both in cities and rural areas. Discover practical approaches to building branches that serve not only as places to bank, but as spaces that spark local investment and community involvement. Whether you're with a bank or credit union, you'll leave with tools and insights to help you create branches that work financially and foster stronger, more connected communities.

Closing the Gaps: How to Identify Lending Gaps and What to Do Once You’ve Found Them
Every CRA Officer will face lending gaps at one point or another. When your institution’s lending falls below market standards, you need to take action. But just because you know what a lending gap is doesn’t mean you know what to do once you’ve found one.
Watch this webinar with CRA expert Linda Ezuka to learn how to identify and address lending gaps under the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). You’ll learn how to compare your bank's lending activity with that of your peers, how to analyze your bank’s CRA performance, and what to do when you inevitably find a gap.
With CRA regulatory change on the horizon, it's more important than ever to understand your bank’s lending performance, identify gaps, and take actionable steps to improve. While this webinar is aimed at those who already have a basic understanding of lending gaps and their importance, even CRA newbies can benefit from this topic.

How to Properly Delineate Your CRA Assessment Area(s) Under the Current and Future CRA Regulations
Every CRA professional knows that choosing your Assessment Area(s) is one of the most important decisions you make related to CRA, and can be difficult given the many factors an institution should consider. What are the rules? What options do I have? Did I choose the right areas? Now what data do I need to track? How often should I review my Assessment Area(s) configuration? Throw questions about the upcoming (although paused) CRA rule in there and it becomes even more complicated.
Watch this insightful webinar by CRA experts Len and Josh Suzio from GeoDataVision. They cover the rules and best practices for choosing and tracking Assessment Areas under the current CRA rule, as well as how transitioning from the old to the new rule might affect you (specifically in regards to “Facility Based Assessment Areas” and the two new types of CRA Assessment Areas, "Retailing Lending Assessment Areas" and "Outside Retail Lending Assessment Areas").
Whether you're familiar with the current CRA rules or just getting started, this webinar will provide essential insights and practical tips to ensure your institution is well-equipped to choose and track your Assessment Areas.

Bridging the Gap: How to Help CDFIs Empower Underserved Communities
Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) do a lot for their communities. While larger institutions might have a bigger dollar impact, CDFIs specialize in building relationships and working with minority groups to make a difference. That’s why it makes sense to partner with and support the CDFIs in your community. You have the dollars and the team; CDFIs have the relationships and the dream.
There are many ways to partner with CDFIs, including making community development loans or equity equivalent investments. Banks can also purchase microloans from CDFIs, which provides liquidity for lending and helps the bank reach its CRA lending goals. Making a deposit at another financial institution may sound counterintuitive, but there are many benefits, including potential CRA credit.
Watch this webinar to hear from Scale Link panelists on supporting the CDFIs in your community and giving back in ways you may not have considered. You’ll learn why supporting CDFIs is crucial, how to do so through microdeposits (under $50,000), and how these deposits can lead to CRA credit.
If your institution has ever considered partnering with a CDFI, or even if you’ve never thought about it but wonder how it might look, you don’t want to miss this!

What Small Banks Need to Know About the Community Reinvestment Act
This webinar is exclusively for banks with less than $600M in assets and won't discuss concepts applicable to ISBs or large banks.
As a small bank employee, you juggle a lot of responsibilities. Chances are you’re the only CRA/compliance person at the bank, and even if you’re not, you still don’t have the resources you need. Keeping your bank compliant is a big task, but all the training out there seems to be aimed at larger institutions. What works for that $15 billion bank just isn’t going to cut it for your institution.
And when it comes to the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA), there’s not much training available, especially for small banks. We’d like to fix that.
Watch this free webinar to learn what small banks need to know about the CRA. Whether you’ve been in the game for a while or are just starting out, you’ll learn what it takes to run a small bank’s CRA program, how to approach your CRA exam, what the new CRA rule means for you, and more.

Tips and Tricks for Building A Volunteer Program, Encouraging Employees to Serve, and Reporting Those Hours (Learn From Several Institutions)
Building a volunteer program and encouraging employees to serve can be difficult. Not to mention reporting those hours and coming up with new ideas.

But where do you even start?
Watch this panel webinar featuring several banks and credit unions. Each of these institutions has seen great success when it comes to employee volunteerism, and these panelists are here to share their journeys.
Learn tips and tricks for building your employee volunteer program, encouraging employees to volunteer, and tracking those hours. Whether your institution has an established volunteer program or not, you’re bound to learn something new.

April may be Financial Literacy Month, but for many people, finances are a year-round struggle.

The New CRA Rule: The Biggest Changes and Challenges You May Face
While there are some welcome changes in the new CRA rule, it will also bring many challenges and growing pains to institutions unprepared for complex changes and more rigorous standards.
Regulators have stated that the new rule will “raise the bar” when it comes to passing your CRA exam. And exam failure rates are estimated to increase by 10 times! This may sound scary, but there are steps you can take now to prepare your program for challenges and give yourself the best chance when the new rule takes effect (hint: some parts of the new rule start sooner than you think).
Watch this webinar to hear from CRA expert Len Suzio, President of GeoDataVision. Len will address the three biggest changes to the CRA Rule, as well as the biggest challenges you may face and how to overcome those challenges. We’ll discuss the types of assessment areas in the new rule, the new Retail Lending Test and how it will be applied, the Community Development Financing Test, and more.
