First Financial Bank, a TRUPOINT customer, leverages the CRA Analytics platform to analyze their CRA data. During a recent merger, the $13.8B Ohio bank also used CRA Analytics to analyze the individual and combined data, and work proactively to identify potential CRA risk.

"TRUPOINT Analytics is absolutely time-saving! There's no way that a team of people could go through and review all the data that needs to be looked at without it," said First Financial's Heather Montgomery, Community Development Analyst, and Gina Balzer, Community Development Coordinator.

CRA Analytics is designed to be a versatile, yet purpose-built, compliance solution. The First Financial team does an excellent job of getting the most value out of the software by using it in a variety of helpful ways. Here's how:

  1. During a recent CRA exam, they used CRA Analytics to answer regulator questions, and validate their CRA data and activities.
  2. Using CRA Analytics has also helped reduce the potential for errors and improved data quality.
  3. The marketing team also uses CRA Analytics to build more targeted campaigns that better serve their communities.
  4. As the bank grows and enters new markets, they use CRA Analytics to learn more about the community's needs.

The team at First Financial is prioritizing compliance, and using that insight to grow successfully. They are supported by TRUPOINT in those efforts with unlimited support and guidance, training, and guided CRA Analytics reviews with a TRUPOINT analyst.

One benefit that really stands out to First Financial Bank? TRUPOINT's commitment to their success.

"The customer service is great," added Montgomery and Balzer. "The team is quick to respond. If we reach out, TRUPOINT is always ready to help."
