Status of Lending Industry Prompts Trend Commentaries from Cypress Software SystemsArticles to Address Business Issues Affecting Banks, Credit Unions and Other Financial InstitutionsNORTH RICHLAND HILLS, Texas – April 29, 2010 – As the economy begins to recover this year, the financial industry faces more of the same – demand for better risk management, the need for lending compliance, and increased scrutiny from the government and public. To address the issues affecting banks, credit unions and other finance organizations, Cypress Software Systems is launching a series of commentaries this year that will analyze important problems and explore potential solutions. Cypress will release the commentaries on a monthly basis for the next six months, discussing timely lending matters, including:
“Financial institutions face numerous operational challenges each day as they strive to run their lending operations,” said Steven Croft, senior vice president at Cypress Software Systems. “From the recent lending crises to the onslaught of federal examiners, the industry has been battered from many sides. At Cypress, we want to provide the industry with fresh insight into methods and techniques that can help banks, credit unions and other organizations manage their operations more profitably.” The commentaries will appear on Cypress’ Web site at www.go-cypress.com, as well as on the company’s blog http://info.go-cypress.com and in leading industry trade journals. These articles are designed to be stand-alone trend reports that provide the kind of business insight and intelligence that financial institutions need to be successful in today’s challenging business climate.
