Our Associates Are Able To Leverage Their Experience and Quickly Adapt It To Your Needs

Following are some of our recent engagements which demonstrate the scope of services and improvements available to your community bank:

  • For a $150 million bank, we led a two-day project session to help organize the centralization of four community banks. This required planning for consolidation, system conversion, and standardization. Within one week after the meeting, GNA Inc. provided the bank with resource assignments, deadlines, and more than 250 initial milestones and tasks to complete the project.
  • For a De Novo bank, we worked with their management team to build a six-month earnings forecast and developed easy-to-use templates for regular forecast updates.
  • For a $2.5 billion bank, we analyzed and built five and ten-year projections on branch expansion projects with return on investment and break-even metrics.
  • For the executive management and board of directors of a $20 million a year service business, we prepared five and ten-year projections and a company valuation.
  • For a De Novo bank, we improved their communication of critical financial metrics to their board of directors and investors by developing streamlined reporting formats.
  • For a $250 million bank, we managed the transfer of operations from their holding company to a newly formed independent bank in a new city.
