Special thanks to the more than 550 bankers, spouses and guests who helped celebrate the NBA’s 2019 NBA Annual Convention, May 1-3 at the Embassy Suites in La Vista. The Convention is an energizing opportunity to highlight the activities of the NBA, connect/reconnect with fellow Nebraska bankers and friends, and to celebrate banking in Nebraska. The 2018-19 NBA Annual Report was presented to the membership at the Annual Convention which showcases many of the NBA’s recent accomplishments and successes. The report can be viewed on the NBA website (www.nebankers.org) under “About” the NBA menu item.
Thanks, are also due to continued strength within the banking industry, strong member support of NBA programs and services, and proactive financial management, I am pleased to report that your NBA experienced another strong fiscal year. Year-end fiscal estimates indicate total organizational assets were $3,634,046 while total liabilities were $388,132. Member equity is approximately $3.2 million. Total revenues during the past year were almost $3.39 million while expenses were $3.2 million. These numbers resulted in an estimated net change in the organization’s cash reserves of approximately $150,000. This increase occurred even as the NBA provided a recent 5% membership dues refund and a sizable contribution toward flood disaster recovery. In addition, we were able to increase our principal balances in both the Nebraska Bankers Educational Foundation and the NBA fund at the University of Nebraska Foundation to grow our NBA scholarship programs. Here are a few important highlights I wanted to share as the NBA wraps up 2018-19 and eagerly moves into our next fiscal year:
Finally, I would be remiss if I did not extend a special thank you to our members institutions, board members, volunteers, partners and our amazing staff who help the NBA retains its role as the leading financial services trade association in the state of Nebraska. Together, we successfully speak as the leading advocate for Nebraska’s banking industry. Until next time, Richard J. Baier NBA President/CEO
