What marketplace changes will have the
biggest impact on community banks in
2015?
Community bankers will see expanded
regulatory rules and enforcement, including
an increased emphasis on fair and responsible
banking practices. Two significant challenges
will be addressing the new TILA-RESPA and
HMDA requirements. The good news is that
bankers will also see opportunities for growth—
commercial and indirect lending are two
promising areas that come to mind.

Our team consists of former bank compliance
officers, regulators, attorneys and software

and HMDA. They apply and infuse their deep
insight and expertise into all of our solutions.

than 400 regulatory citation changes that
impact banks’ documents, processes, policies

SPECIAL ADVERTORIAL SECTION
What new products, services or technologies are your community bank customers most interested in and why?Community bankers want a bank card solution to help retain loyalty and keep cardholders banking in their home town. Offering an instant issuance solution in their bank is a simple, economical, secure way to give customers access to their accounts and bring their credit and debit cards to market quicker. Consumers want services that align with their lifestyle, giving them immediate service, flexibility and convenience.
A new big consumer trend is the “NOW” factor with in-branch issuance. Providing a card immediately keeps customers “on the go” without the delay of traditional card issuance. This provides the cardholder with immediate purchasing power, boosting customer satisfaction, keeping the card top-of-wallet and increasing interchange revenue. What kind of benefits will a bank receive?Banks using this new type of technology have a competitive advantage when they offer instant issuance. It increases profitability, activation, usability and it’s cost effective. CPI’s patented solution, Card@Once®, has a small footprint, is EMV capable, PCI compliant and meets Visa/MasterCard security require-ments.
How can this new technology improve a customer’s experience?As a new customer, opening an account at a bank that has Card@Once® solutions allows me to receive my new, permanent EMV credit/debit card right away and buy a pair of boots in Nashville, all within the same afternoon.
