The May educational session will feature Frank Amantia and Steven Smits of Mid-Atlantic Financial Partners, LLC, a local CUSO formed in 2003.

Credit union executives considering the addition of MBLs to their lending portfolio should attend this program and bring their questions.
In addition to serving as President of the CUSO, Frank Amantia holds the position of Senior Vice President and Chief Lending Officer of MAFCU. He is a multi-disciplined banker with 30+ years experience.
