Financial Services
Forbes Magazine dubbed Brickell Avenue ‘Wall Street South’ a few years ago, and that is now only one part of our community’s ever-evolving banking and financial services arena. Long a financial leader into Latin America, Miami-Dade as a whole is rapidly evolving into a true global banking and financial services hub, with dozens of hedge and private funds calling our city home; not to mention a myriad of multi-national, national, community and international banks.
Mission
The Financial Services Committee addresses a broad range of regulatory concerns that impact the industry, along with the myriad of both internal and external matters that impact this sector. These include cyber security, FinTech, compliance, community development, business and corporate needs, talent acquisition, competition, mergers/acquisitions and other relevant topics.
Objectives
- Keep members informed on current banking-related issues and regulatory matters
- Provide programming that is relevant, interesting and informative to a diverse group of stakeholders in business, finance and the economy.
