CEO Corner

By Jon Evans

We had an exciting first half of 2018 as we completed our merger and conversion. While the bulk of operational services have been consolidated, a couple of additional changes are still needed. This includes migrating former ACBB clients who utilize foreign check services to a new platform as well as vault services changes for former BBN clients. The latter includes a new portal, in addition to the way armored car services are provided. Customer training for these will be offered for the remainder of 2018.

We added Joe Krzywicki (see Employee Spotlight) to our senior team. Joe will head up Sales and Marketing and report to Craig Howie, Senior Executive Vice President. Joe is a great addition to ACBB and I hope you’ll get an opportunity to meet him.

Our technology and compliance business continues to grow. Both Jerry Murphy, CEO of BITS, and Nancy Lake, Director of Compliance Anchor, have done a great job. BITS has grown to 103 customers in 18 states, while Compliance Anchor maintains 99 customers in 11 states.

We are currently in test mode for our rollout of Bank AnoVa, which will greatly enhance the way we offer international remittance services. More to come in the near future.

In addition, we continue to participate in discussions and work groups relative to the Fintech industry and Faster Payments initiative. Management and the Board are committed to these efforts and have budgeted significant dollars for future products and services.

Our Board approved an increase in our stock issuance price effective August 1, 2018. The issuance price was raised by $500 per share to $5,000 per share with a minimum 20 share requirement to participate in all of the services ACBB offers. I would like to thank those banks who purchased additional shares to the 20 share level. I would also like to welcome 9 new shareholders who joined the ACBB family thus far in 2018.

Change in SWIFT Code

Effective July 7, 2018, the primary Atlantic Community Bankers Bank SWIFT code, ATLCUS33, was deactivated and transferred to the former BBN SWIFT code, NORHUS33.
The SWIFT code is a unique identification code for financial and non-financial institutions, as defined by ISO 9362. SWIFT codes are used when transferring funds between banks and credit unions, particularly for international wire transfers.

ACBB clients are encouraged to update their internal U.S. dollar incoming international wire procedures to use Atlantic Community Bankers Bank and SWIFT code, NORHUS33. The revised information should be passed on to customers/members. This will help facilitate seamless processing of incoming wire transactions.

For additional information on the use of the SWIFT code please contact the Deposit Operations Team at acbbdepositoperations@acbb.com or by calling 800-822-2137,
option 2.
