November Event - LIBOR Discontinuance: What you need to know
COAFP hosted Vorys, Sater, Seymour, and Pease LLP associate Zachary T. Brumfield to share developments regarding the 2021 discontinuance of the London Inter-bank Offering Rate (LIBOR). LIBOR is a globally accepted, benchmark interest-rate that indicates borrowing costs between banks.
Why should we care? LIBOR currently is used within approximately $200 trillion dollars of financial contracts across the globe. Zachary provided the background on why global financial watchdogs have decided to migrate away from LIBOR, the financial markets response to those decisions, and what market initiatives have originated as a result. Loan and ISDA (Derivative) contracts will have direct implications both operationally for company but also legal implications to consider.
Thank you to Zachary Brumfield for sharing his LIBOR discontinuance insights with our COAFP membership!!

COAFP Awarded for 11th Year Running!
at the Annual Regional Officer’s Meeting in Washington D.C., July 2018
Cindy Clark and Jenny Morrison represented COAFP at the national Association for Financial Professionals (AFP) 2018 Regional Officer’s Meeting (ROM) in Washington D.C. It is a meeting where AFP Regional Associations gather, share ideas, discuss strategy and network, all with the goal of creating better regional associations for their Members.
For the 11th consecutive year, COAFP won an award at the annual ROM Idea Fair. This year, COAFP won in the “Best Marketing Idea” category. Under the leadership of President Linda Opundo and Buckeye Financial Forum Co-Chairs Cindy Clark and Clay Lanctot, COAFP asked Buckeye Financial Forum speakers to advertise COAFP on both their websites and social media feeds before and after the Buckeye Financial Forum, for an agreed upon time period. Benefits included exposure to a different audience driving new visitor traffic to our website, building enthusiasm for the event with existing members, and different feeds mentioning COAFP move the organization up in search engine rankings. The result: Our 2018 Buckeye Financial Forum had its highest-ever attendance!
