Tory Haggerty is a best-selling author and compliance professional who has taught dozens of compliance topics to thousands of bankers over his 15-year banking career. He started out as an FDIC commissioned examiner and has sat in about every seat since including compliance officer, auditor, and now CEO of a consulting company. He has completed the Graduate School of Banking at Colorado and has earned five industry compliance certifications. In 2020, he retired from the Air National Guard as an officer with more than 20 years of distinguished military service. He is the founder of “Tuscan Club University”, launching the nation’s first ever commercially available fair lending school and fair lending certification. Tory is passionate about compliance and helping other people understand this often-complex topic.
In 2022, Tory published his first book, ‘Unfair Lending: Why Discrimination In Banking Still Exists And How to Prevent It.’ His book immediately reached the Amazon best-sellers list and is successfully helping others in the industry. He has also written many compliance articles and has been asked to speak at several banking trade associations. Some of these include Iowa Bankers Association, South Dakota Bankers Association, Nebraska Independent Community Bankers, and the Association of Credit Unions and Risk Professionals. He leads the BankIn Minnesota (formerly ICBM) compliance professionals’ group and has spoken at the Ncontracts annual Ngage event. He is also an instructor at the Graduate School of Banking in Colorado.
Since Tory has been a regulator, compliance officer, auditor, and now consultant, he’s been able to see banking from all angles. He quickly relates with his audience and is able to inject humor into often dull topics. Through the power of storytelling, he relies on his years of real-world experience to relate topics in a way listeners can easily understand and quickly use. Rather than just provide theory, he injects viable solutions into his training.
