New crisis management category added to 2021 Diamond Awards - now open for entries!

CUNA Marketing & Business Development Council is now officially accepting entries for the 2021 Diamond Awards. To honor the critical and challenging work executed by credit unions this year, a Crisis Management category has been added.

Credit unions are currently flush with liquidity resulting from deposits of stimulus money, a flight to safety with deposits, and sharply reduced loan volumes, and that perfect storm could lead many CU leaders to look away from the potential for certain scenarios should an economic recovery take longer than expected to occur.

New policy directives and incentives may be needed, including offering pathways for baby boomers to delay retirement, drawing in workers from other states and supporting immigration from other countries
