In November, CT Bankers Association hosted the inaugural Director’s Training SIM. Competing teams of four included a bank exec mentor guiding three directors as they pulled the levers and toggled the switches to set interest rates and manage our case study bank’s balance sheet over three annual cycles. Thank you to the participating banks including “winner” Torrington Savings.
Thank you David Sidon, CPA aka Banquer Dave , Kevin W Nunes, and Connecticut Bankers Association (CBA) for a great day of learning with a bit of fun mixed in. CFO’s: this program carries a 100% guarantee your directors come away with even more appreciation for you!
From Lesa Vanotti , President & CEO at Torrington Savings Bank
Round 2 is already on the calendar – Save the date : October 2, 2025.
