Letter from the CEOGregory J. Fine, CAE
Apr 19, 2012 (TMA International Headquarters) – It has been a whirlwind of activity since I had the honor of becoming TMA’s CEO in December. Over the past four months, I have had opportunities to visit a number of chapters and attended my first TMA conference, the Distressed Investing Conference in January. One of the best parts of my job is meeting our members. I have spent the past 15 years working in membership organizations like TMA, and I am always energized by opportunities to speak directly with members face-to-face.

Apr 19, 2012 (TMA International Headquarters) – In the business world, cooperation between lenders and borrowers is essential and, as in any relationship, communication is the key to success. This is especially true for a financially distressed borrower. While maintaining positive and transparent communications with lenders is an important part of running a business during both good and bad times, the task simultaneously becomes more critical and more difficult when a business is having financial problems.
