Seminar to focus on construction companies

An upcoming Rolling Meadows seminar will address how the credit crunch, banking and bonding, will affect construction companies.

The session, sponsored by Palatine-based DS&P Insurance Services Inc., takes place at 7:30 a.m. Thursday, March 12, at the Holiday Inn Rolling Meadows, 3405 Algonquin Road. The seminar will address what construction companies should expect in the coming months as the credit markets contract. Panelists are working with contractors throughout the state and the U.S. so both a local and national perspective will be addressed.

Panel members will offer ideas on how companies can differentiate from the competition. Panel members include Steve Anderson, President NAS Surety Group; Matthew Doucet, vice president Fifth Third Bank Construction Lending; Robert Frentzel, executive vice president of Private Bank Construction Lending and Mike Noe, Chief Operating Officer of Travelers Surety.
