Strong Banks, Strong Communities: The North Carolina Bankers Association (NCBA) brings together all categories of banking institutions that best represent the interests of our rapidly changing state. Proudly serving North Carolina’s banking industry since 1897, the NCBA is the professional trade organization providing advocacy, leadership and support for its dynamic membership base. Through its government relations activities, the Association communicates with the North Carolina General Assembly, the U.S. Congress and banking regulators on behalf of its member banks, savings institutions and trust companies. The NCBA also provides media relations support, educational and training programs, and regulatory and compliance assistance. As the second largest banking state in the nation, the NCBA actively promotes the professional and educational development of its members and affiliate members through events and conferences, including the upcoming American Mortgage Conference in May!
