What We Do

Information Resource to the Financial Community

Bank Director magazine

As one of the most widely read and highly respected magazines in the banking and financial services industry, we have created new sections in our quarterly publication that focus on core issues that are fundamental to mid- to large-sized bank CEOs, their senior leadership teams, chairmen and independent directors. 

Customized Research

Throughout the year, Bank Director conducts research with a number of sponsoring companies’ support.  Through customized programs such as our 500-member research panel, and through surveys and special projects, Bank Director provides direct access to the boardroom as we probe the thought processes of senior bank management and directors.  

Viewpoints

For those companies looking to showcase specific thought leadership pieces, Bank Director magazine’s sponsored editorial section, “Viewpoints: Views from Bank and Boardroom Experts,” highlights insights from industry experts on timely and relative bank and board governance topics.

Conferences, Seminars & Roundtables

Bank Director hosts a variety of conferences and director-training programs throughout the year designed to address hot-button issues affecting bank management and directors.  Bank Director designs all events to help directors understand how to carry out their duties, prepare institutions to grow and compete in the future, and introduce tools that help directors and officers monitor bank performance and reduce bank risk.  Annual conferences include the industry’s premiere M&A and growth event, Acquire or Be Acquired, the three-day Bank Audit Committee conference, a Boardroom Forum on Lending and the Bank Executive and Board Compensation conference.

Online & Digital

The new BankDirector.com serves as a digital platform designed for the senior-most leaders in the financial community.  In addition to live conferences, Bank Director produces custom audio webinars and webcasts. We work closely with sponsors to determine the most appropriate topics and then market and produce live audio events, up to 90 minutes in duration. Past webinar topics have included fraud control, strategies of high performance banks, risk management, and FDIC-assisted transactions.

Director’s Database

Our Director’s Database contains comprehensive information for CEOs, CFOs, chairmen, presidents, and key officers as well as information on outside directors of all U.S. banks and thrifts in the process of converting.  The database includes relevant information such as a director's affiliation with a company, committee information, and demographic data.

BankBusiness.com

An extension of BankDirector.com, we just launched BankBusiness.com.  Unlike a static directory, this site serves as the online resource for banking executives, embedding research and thought leadership throughout the site.  Updated regularly, and designed to scale with today's technologies, BankBusiness enables PwC, for example, to proactively market its offerings, engage in more meaningful, qualified exchanges with potential customers, and interact with existing clients in creative new ways.
