Topic: Community Banks Serving Small Business Customers in the Credit Card Space – How ICBA Bancard and TCM Bank Are Here to Help
Start time: 1:28
A recent study conducted by A.T. Kearney on behalf of ICBA Bancard and Visa, found that 38 percent of small businesses shopped for a new credit card in the past two years. 72 percent of these small businesses selected a small business credit card. With community banks already making more than 60 percent of small business loans, there is tremendous opportunity to build upon the already existing community bank-small business relationship by offering access to credit through credit cards and merchant services. Our guests are Tina Giorgio, President and CEO of ICBA Bancard and Damon Moorer, President and CEO, TCM Bank N.A who will discuss how offering credit cards is a logical extension of a community bank/small to mid-size business banking relationship
