This four-day conference, sponsored by the
AFSA Section on Independent Operations, is the main event for independent finance company owners and suppliers to this segment of the industry. Educational sessions offer new ideas in the areas of technology, funding, human resources, the economy, managing the family-owned business, and new business opportunities.
On March 18-21, 2009 the AFSA 26th Independents Conference & Exposition will host
"Working Together: Facing the Future" at the Bellagio Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The sessions at this conference will offer new ideas in the areas of best business practices, credit scoring, risk based pricing, managing the family-owned business, and new business opportunities. The program is enhanced by the largest exposition of products/services offered by industry suppliers. We will have a great line up of speakers who are both industry professionals and leading experts. See the linked program for details. A presentation on the
RSM McGladrey Annual Independents Financial Performance Survey results will be held on Friday, March 19, 2009. Printed copies of the survey results will be provided to companies participating in the survey on a complimentary basis. Results may also be purchased after the conference.
The
AFSA Board of Directors Meeting will again convene during our conference. We will have the opportunity to meet board members at the Welcoming Reception with Exhibitors and the AFSAPAC Desert Reception on Wednesday evening.
Registration will open in November for the premiere AFSA event for independent finance companies of 2009!
