The American Financial Services Association (AFSA) today launched a new communications channel for AFSA members and prospective members. AFSA Today, is AFSA’s first-ever podcast focusing on a discussion of issues relevant to the consumer credit industry.
The goal of the podcast is providing an additional communications channel to keep AFSA member companies informed on issues facing the consumer credit industry, ranging from the impact of federal and state legislation and regulation, to the rapid pace of technology, to the political landscape in Washington DC and around the nation.
AFSA Today podcasts will start on a monthly basis with the possibility of increasing the frequency in 2019.
This is an opportunity for AFSA to increase the value of membership in the association and also to increase the level of engagement with members.
The September podcast features Chris Stinebert, President and CEO of AFSA, in conversation with Jack Ferry, AFSA’s Vice President of Communications.
They discuss AFSA’s formula for success and effectiveness, some of the hot-button issues facing all AFSA members, navigating Washington DC and state capitals, and the changing political landscape of Washington DC over the past 10 years.
The next AFSA Today podcast will air in several weeks and feature Bill Himpler, Executive Vice President of AFSA.
