Terme Bancorp, a
holding company engaged in money services and consumer behavior initiatives via
four subsidiaries, this morning issued a corporate update letter from its CEO,
John G. Yedinak.
To shareholders and
the investment community:
Since Terme has
recently become current with its financial reporting and increased its share
capitalization to facilitate growth, this is an optimal time to update current
and potential shareholders on our business operations and vision for the
future.
Terme Bancorp’s
primary mission is to provide economic inclusion for a large segment of the
population that is underserved or rejected by banks and other financial
institutions due to their ethnicity, poor credit or prior banking history.
Terme Capital’s core business is to provide global electronic money services to
consumers by offering general-purpose reloadable (GPR) cards that are sponsored
by affinity groups.
The Company collects
a small transaction fee for every consumer transaction using our GPR cards and
we expect to experience early success and generate steady revenue growth in
this area of our business based on the rapid growth occurring in the electronic
currency market.
Targeted affinity
groups for our prepaid cards include charitable, religious, entertainment,
athletic, corporate, social, and government organizations. Terme is currently
working with these organizations to enable them to offer the general public,
their members and employees tools for personal financial empowerment and
inclusion.
The Company’s
affinity relationships will be unique to every entity but have a common revenue
sharing component with a portion of the proceeds specifically directed to
support the social and philanthropic initiatives of the affinity partner. Terme
Bancorp intends to enter into strategic celebrity endorsements as well as
pledge our support for US military veterans via our GPR card agreements.
Utilizing the most
secure chip technology, Terme’s GPR cards will give consumers the ability to
access and transfer currency globally at affordable rates while adhering to the
strictest regulatory guidelines. Our pre-paid reloadable cards will be very
popular because they allow economic inclusion for consumers who may otherwise
be unable to engage in basic transactions such as paying bills online, making
hotel reservations or renting a car.
Consumers can also
access their balances and activity from any internet-capable device in real
time, in addition to cash management and financial planning tools, with our
cards. GPR prepaid cards are one of the fastest-growing areas of consumer
finance as the prepaid industry as a whole has experienced tremendous growth
over the past few years. There are at least 68 million Americans who are
unbanked or underbanked, according to a 2012 report issued by the FDIC.
According to the
2013 ‘Analysis of General Purpose Reloadable Cards’ report by Bretton Woods
Inc., GPR prepaid cards continue to have a cost advantage over basic checking
accounts and provide a valuable and cost effective service for all consumers,
particularly those classified as having a low to moderate income (LMI).
Due to the
significant growth of the GPR card market and the Company’s affinity
relationships, Terme plans to build a consistent and significant revenue stream
and increase shareholder value while providing economic inclusion to
underbanked and underserved consumers.
Sincerely,
John G. Yedinak
CEO
Terme Bancorp
