For decades, the New York Bankers Association has brought you an excellent caliber of programming at our annual Financial Services Forum. Though we couldn't gather together in person, this year was no different, as we offered our Virtual Speaker Series: History in Real Time– five dynamic and timely sessions tailored to your needs, while evoking our Forum format; bringing you top of mind programming while meeting you where you are.
Each month, we hosted a lunchtime virtual town hall, featuring a keynote speaker and a workshop with access to the industry’s thought leaders, beginning with preeminent experts in political and economic analysis. And while exploring the most important challenges facing our industry and our nation, featuring the experts and insight you can access nowhere else, the inclusive virtual format allowed access to many who have been unable to attend our Forum in the past.
Future thinking now; at this moment in history. History in Real Time. Thank you for joining us - we can't wait to show you what we've got next for you. Please find additional information and sponsors below.
