ACUMA will open the conference to virtual attendees through a live telecast, an affordable option, it says, in a capital-deprived business economy. The live telecast will be made available at www.ACUMAtv.com “at a fraction of the cost of attending in person.”

Speakers include Jim Gillespie, Coldwell Banker Real Estate Corporation’s president and CEO; Larry Platt, practice area leader of K&L Gates; executive vice president Ann Clurman of The Futures Company; and Tom Millon, Capital Markets Cooperative’s president and CEO.

Sessions will cover a variety of hot topics, including the state of the capital markets, the state of the mortgage market and real estate brokerage market and adoption of new, unique secondary market strategies. Also on the agenda: compliance with new, complex regulations, including the SAFE Act, effective loss mitigation strategies, and emerging trends in generational marketing, social media and technology.

According to ACUMA, credit unions’ total origination volume has gained momentum, with a record $90 billion in mortgage loans set in 2009.
