BBB president named to banking advisory board

Berg Business Board President Stacy A. Cox has been appointed to the American Bankers Association's newly established Emerging Leaders Advisory Board. The board, which is comprised of talented bankers from across the country, will influence the creation of innovative programming and networking opportunities for the next generation of bank leaders, help guide ABA's political engagement strategies and play an integral role in planning the Emerging Leaders Forum, held in conjunction with ABA's Government Relations Summit.

“It’s an honor to join such a talented group of industry thought leaders and represent Ohio on ABA’s Emerging Leaders Advisory Board,” said Stacy, who is a '94 'Berg alumna. “This appointment allows us to share our perspective on issues impacting banks and help formulate new ideas and strategies to tackle some of our industry's most pressing issues."

Stacy is the chief operations officer and senior vice president of Croghan Colonial Bank in Fremont.

Emerging Leaders Advisory Board members will provide input into new ways to enhance industry diversity and build on existing ABA initiatives and help grow the industry’s future leaders through professional development, peer networking and bank advocacy. Board members will also have the opportunity to participate in ABA’s Power Up initiative, a call-to-action campaign for bankers to help increase the industry’s voice in Washington, D.C., by strengthening banker engagement.
