DES MOINES, Iowa – With the pace of credit union mergers predicted to continue in 2010, TMG (The Members Group) has issued a white paper on card services management during a merger.
Co-authored by TMG VP of client relations Aris Jerahian and VP of sales Brian Scott, the paper shares tips on evaluating the card portfolios of merging credit unions for profitability and growth potential. Jerahian and Scott also discuss the little-known benefits of consolidating card services with one processing vendor.
"It's no longer the assumption that the products, services and culture of the larger of the two merging institutions will automatically be retained," the paper reads. "Leaders are taking a more tactical approach to individual programs, and card programs are perfectly suited to this type of vision."
