39th Annual Conference on Serving the Underserved | June 5-9, 2013 | Baltimore, MDPlan now to join us next summer in Baltimore, Maryland for our 39th Annual Conference. As the financial services industry and more Americans seek alternatives to high-cost and increasingly complex banking instruments, credit unions are increasingly serving more diverse populations and markets. The Federation is devoted to bringing the information, tools, and partnerships to help credit unions of all shapes and sizes to best serve previously underserved markets.
 

The 2013 Federation Annual Conference will bring together leading thinkers, researchers, policymakers and practitioners in community development and financial empowerment with credit unions adapting new strategies and approaches to better serve their members and communities.  Our sessions and workshops will focus on insightful tracks in the areas of research, technology, ideas for innovative products and services, resource development, compliance and sustainability.
 

Visit Baltimore for Fun. Stay for the Memories. Baltimore-it's not so much a place as an experience. And after close to three hundred years of history, this city can deliver more fun-filled family days (and romantic evenings) to make any visit one you’ll remember forever.
