About CBA
CBA’S MISSION
The Colorado Bankers Association seeks to provide economic
opportunities for Coloradans through a sound and competitive
banking environment by advocating public policy consistent with
that, and enhancing banking’s skills, image and unity.
MEMBERSHIP
BENEFITS AND OUTCOMES
What if you had the ability to shape the environment in which
you live and watch it develop under your responsible, protective
guidance? We give you that opportunity. The Colorado Bankers
Association represents 90% of all banking assets, offices and
employees in the state, from community banks to multi-state banks.
CBA is the voice of banking in Colorado. Join us to be heard on
government relations and to get involved with our latest education
and training. Only FDIC-insured, taxable financial institutions are
members.
LEGISLATIVE EXPERTISE
CBA works for Colorado banks. We are a strong advocate working for the industry
and making sure your voice is heard. During the 2016 Colorado legislative
leadership in seeking regulatory relief for banks, worked to educate lawmakers
about the unfair competition from tax subsidized credit unions and the Farm
Credit System and supported legislation to permit banking of the marijuana
industry where marijuana is state legal.
EDUCATION AND EVENTS
CBA strives to offer bankers a variety of education opportunities.
Visit our education calendar on our website under “Professional
Development.”
CBA hosts dozens of opportunities for bankers to get involved and
stay informed. From our yearly Legislative Luncheon to our Annual
Summit to the dozens of educational offerings in between, CBA is
the premier resource for bankers who want to reach new heights in
their field. Visit www.coloradobankers.org to learn more.
