J.R. Bruno & Associates celebrates 20th anniversary serving the MBL and SBA lending community since 1994

SAN FRANCISCO, CA (January 31, 2014) J.R. Bruno & Associates is celebrating 20 years of continued service to the business lending community, making JRB the longest-running consulting firm to SBA and member business lenders in the country. “Anniversaries are a time to take stock of our successes and the challenges we’ve met through the years,” JRB President Joanna Bruno said. “When J.R. Bruno & Associates was founded in 1994, it was our mission to provide clients with an experienced, dedicated team of SBA and business lending professionals. We have that team!

“It’s also been our consistent focus to treat every client as our only client – there are no ‘cookie-cutter’ solutions here – and on giving each client personal, hands-on guidance to meet their specific needs. We have lived up to that commitment and to the notion that we aren’t here to give clients a fish. We’re here to teach them how to fish. That’s what sets us apart.

“With a goal of preparing a lender’s staff to handle and administer successful MBL programs, we’re here for them as long as they need us. Our JRB Team acts as an extension of their staff, offering a full range of services, from initial set-up and training, to delivering a single service, to managing the entire SBA and member business lending operation – all with the day-to-day involvement clients expect from their dedicated personal consultants. SBA and MBL can be very profitable for credit unions. In addition, with a fuller product offering, a credit union has increased opportunity to become their members’ primary financial institution.”
