Approximately 80 percent of the community banks in the country are in a bank holding company structure. This is for good reason! The bank holding company structure offers many benefits that are not available to banks that have not reorganized into a bank holding company structure. However, many community banks fail to fully utilize the benefits of their bank holding company structure. This audio conference will discuss how to fully capitalize on the bank holding company structure, and will explain how the bank holding company can be used for the benefit of the bank and the shareholders. This session will discuss the bank holding company reorganization process and how the holding company can be utilized to raise capital, offer shareholder liquidity, assist in mergers and acquisitions and provide other benefits. This audio conference should not be missed by anyone looking to better understand and utilize the bank holding company structure and its benefits.
