C3: Capital Plus Community Powered by Cenerus
Banks and lenders face significant market challenges, from increased regulatory scrutiny to expanded demand for efficiency to pressures on clients creating credit pressures in commercial banking. Even so, there remains a tremendous opportunity to bring more efficient, more connected services to clients.
To capture this opportunity, banks and bankers at all levels – from leadership to relationship managers – need a clear line of sight into their clients, with actionable intelligence that allows banks to better meet client needs and address any client challenges. This is where the C3 program delivers, providing banks with four key advantages:
- Enhanced Transparency. Updated, relevant, easy to digest information on commercial clients to improve decisions and create opportunities.
- Improved ROI. Through improved line of sight, the C3 program enables banks to introduce new services and options to clients that are timely and beneficial.
- Actionable Intelligence. The C3 insights also allow banks to better manage their book of business improving alignment and creating increased liquidity where needed.
- Community Connected and CRA-Credit Eligible. Backed by Capital Plus, a certified CDFI, the C3 program gives back in all ways helping banks be more community connected with their clients while working with services that support equal opportunities in banking.
“Successful communities are centered on successful banks providing the support and services those communities need,” said Eric Donnelly, CEO of Crossroads Impact Corp. “The C3 program helps strengthen banks through expanded ROI and improved client service – delivering banks of all sizes an easy-to-implement boost right when they need it most.
“The C3 program gives banks and lenders the insight and access to updated information they have needed but haven’t had the bandwidth to implement internally,” continued Donnelly. “Bringing C3 to banks through the financial network of Crossroads, the tools and systems of Cenerus and the unique perspective a CDFI like Capital Plus brings, provides well-integrated, cost-effective CRA services advantage for banks and lenders of all sizes.”
“Now more than ever banks need every advantage they can get in the form of better client insight, the ability to make quick decisions and the ability to connect those with a touchpoint that understands their community,” said Sam Rosenfeld, CEO at Cenerus. “C3 does just that and we’re proud to partner with Capital Plus and Crossroads to bring this to market.”
