Expert Profile: Jim Meadows

Expertise:  I can respond to most questions concerning consumer and business relationships with US financial institutions. My expertise touches on deposit and loan issues and particularly on strategies to navigate through bank policies personell and practices. I have a degree in Economics, attended law school, Graduate Shool of Banking, and Commercial Lending and Compliance Schools.

Experience in the area
I have twenty years experience as a bank CEO. Most of those years were spent operating a bank focused primarly on serving consumer/retail needs. I helped pioneer deposit and loan products for low/moderate income individuals. I currently serve on multiple bank boards and am Chairman of a Commercial Bank in Atlanta.

What do you like about this subject?  It's what I've done most of my adult life. A few banks are great. Some are bullys and unfair. I enjoy helping people navigate the process.
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  I hope to help those who are mistreated by the system or who just need help with specific issues of banking.
