Credit Union Leaders Gather in Hauppauge for Industry Forum
Teachers Federal Credit Union opened its doors in Hauppauge recently for an invitation only gathering of credit union leadership from across New York and New Jersey. Roughly eighteen credit unions sent executives, including several names familiar to Long Islanders like Island Federal, Suffolk Credit Union, Nassau Financial and FourLeaf.
The conversation centered on the stuff keeping credit union leaders up at night these days, mainly fraud prevention and data privacy. Scott Simpson, who leads America's Credit Unions on the national level, sat in on the discussions alongside Teachers Federal Credit Union's own Brad Calhoun. The event adds to a running theme this year of Hauppauge serving as a meeting point for finance and business groups well beyond its own borders.
