The Consumer Bankers Association will not hold its auto finance conference in 2010. The Arlington, Va.-based trade group instead will present an event on all of retail banking next June.

CBA's auto finance conference in 2010 would have been the organization's 30th annual event.


In an email to past CBA auto finance conference attendees today, Mark M. Pregmon, chairman of the group's auto finance committee and an executive vice president at SunTrust Banks Inc., wrote that the new conference, which has yet to adopt a formal name, will include tracks on auto finance, collections, home equity lending, consumer deposits, small business banking, fair lending, CRA, and student lending.
