"Since the opening of our company in 1999 we’ve used numerous consulting firms, that frankly, took a nice pay check and left us with little or no added value for our company. From the day we met the FinPro team they have proven to be quite the opposite. Our partnership with them has been extremely beneficial to the First Reliance Bank team, our Directors and me. They have offered tremendous value to our company as we navigate our way through this recession, and position our company to be a market leader in the new era of banking to come.

"As President and CEO one of my primary goals is to develop strategies that improve the Bank's long term performance. By utilizing FinPro's Partnership Program I believe our Bank has gained a competitive advantage in the development of new strategies. Our Bank (founded in 1899) had only its main office and three branches until 1999, then things exploded. Through an IPO and with expansion over the last ten years our Bank has grown to eleven branches and has increased assets by more than 200%. All that growth brought fast changes to our Bank.

Scott Strockoz, a deputy regional director for the FDIC who appeared at the FinPro event, said he has worked with the CFPB on the issue and that much of the bureau's enforcement activity will take place among non-bank players. "It's not just a bank focus," he said.

We serve our clients throughout their lifecycle providing institution specific advice. Through research, knowledge, insights and plenty of hard work and dedication, we develop a program whose goal is to build value for our partner institution. This philosophy is in-line with our core principle of building value together. The illustration reflects a proven and effective step-by-step guideline designed to assist institutions in building value through real growth in any economic environment. It highlights FinPro's belief that Risk, Governance, and Regulation drive Strategy which drives Value.
