WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.-It's an annual rite when previewing a new year to predict it will be "challenging." For 2009, that prediction is likely to be an understatment.
For those reasons and more, Credit Union Journal kicks off 2009 with an expanded commitment to being a crucial resource to credit unions in growing and this year, despite the ongoing recession. Effective with this issue the Journal introduces a new tagline, "The Newsweekly for Growth-Oriented Credit Unions," with plans to provide coverage in every issue on strategies for success in all aspects of credit union operations. Our pledge is to support that tagline week in and week out.
The Journal will continue to provide credit unions with the resources readers have asked for and continue to count on: our Leaderboard series, our annual Best Practices issue, the Grow Show conference, expert analysis, peer group leaders, and much more.
Will 2009 be challenging? More than ever. But many credit unions will not just survive 2009, they will grow and prosper and expand to serve members. To do so, they will need a "toolbox" to fix problems and build that future. In this issue, readers will find more than a dozen "tools" to pick from, with economic previews and other insights being offered to Credit Union Journal readers.
