• Vol. 14 No. 28 Des Moines, Iowa Senterfitt Sets Strong 1986 Course T DIDN’T take long for Donald T. Senterfitt to establish the direc tion he intends to move as president of the American Bankers Associa tion during 1985-86. In his accep tance speech, following his advance ment to the presidency at the ABA convention in New Orleans last week, Mr. Senterfitt stated firmly and with conviction, “ I have another task this morning. And that is to reaffirm to the people of the United States that service to our customers and our communities re mains the absolute top priority of our industry.” From that basic premise, Mr. Senterfitt outlined a positive, ag gressive proram for ABA that is designed to take the initiative in legislation rather than having to res pond to critics and opponents. Mr. Senterfitt is vice chairman of Sun Trust Banks, Inc., Orlando, Fla. In his term, Mr. Senterfitt will be accompanied by Mark W. Olson as president-elect. Mr. Olson is presi dent, Security State Bank, Fergus Falls, Minn., and has extensive ex perience in ABA work, most recent ly as chairman of the important Government Relations Committee. The new treasurer for a two-year term is Thomas P. Rideout, presi dent and CEO, Savannah Bank & Trust Co., Savannah, Ga. Mr. Senterfitt succeeds Jam es G. I https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis Cairns as ABA president. Mr. Cairns will become chairman of the ABA nominating committee. He is president of the Peoples National Bank of Washington, Seattle. Citing the need for banking to provide a ‘‘continuity of service to custom ers,” Mr. Senterfitt said, in speaking of failure to date to get ad ditional powers to serve those custo mers, ‘‘Congress accepted the false premise voiced by our competitors that banks ought not be allowed to compete with them in insurance, real estate, and securities services—say ing banks couldn’t handle those powers equitably or safely. All the while, these same com petitors moved ever further into banking. The American people’s faith in their bank is strong. It underscores my special message to each member of Congress who accepts the glib no tion of our competitors that to modernize banking laws is to anta gonize the voters at home. ‘‘Ju st the opposite is true...The legislatures who vote ‘Yes’ to make the security of banks available to the voters will be able to say directly to their constituents: ‘I have created more choice, more safety, more ser vice, more competition, at a lower price to you...and I have assured that your money will be safe at the bank.’ ” Mr. Senterfitt then stated, “But October 28,1985 to make this happen, there must be action, not just discussion. That is why, today, I am calling upon the Congress and federal regulators to break the logjam on the key issues that must be resolved.” To accomplish this, he proposed that the Senate majority leader and Speaker of the House urge banking committee leaders in both houses to meet with federal regulators of de pository institutions “and to task a working group of their experts to begin meeting regularly once each month with representatives of the regulated industries and representa tives of the public. This working group should be charged by their principals to assess legislative or re gulatory changes proposed by any participant, hammer out areas of agreement, and take back to their principals proposals on which sub s ta n tia l ag reem en t m ay be reached.” He said this would pro vide a “substantively real (opportu nity) to do something, not just talk.” He called for the definition of “bank and deposit,” stating “there must be no loopholes.” He called for responsible reform of the deposit system, putting large investors on warning that they must analyze and accept any risk in placing deposits over the insured lim it...“we have got to resolve against any merger of the FDIC and FSLIC funds that would result in commercial banks paying 2 The Southeast Iowa Group of Na tional Association of Bank Women will hold its quarterly meeting in DeWitt on November 21 at 1:00 p.m. Program for the evening will consist of a panel composed of Bruce Meriwether, Oliver Hansen, Ed Tubbs and Henry Royer. Topic of the panel discussion is: “ Interstate Banking, Advantages, Disadvan tages” and what it will be like na tionwide. the bill for trying to save a risk laden institution that is simply beyond the point of no return.” He also called on the banking industry to ‘‘succeed in writing an industry code on funds availability and other consumer issues as well.” He closed by asking bankers to “Follow your instincts about the American Bankers Association. Our instincts tell us that we are far bet ter off because we have joined together to make things happen. Our instincts tell us...to provide top rated, secure service—full service— to every customer who walks in the door. That is the bargain we strike with our fellow citizens when we start down the path of this, our banking profession.' ’ □ ASK D EN N IS EAR HAR T Nebraska News L.
