Businessweek.com has an interesting piece today by Michael J. Moore entitled, “The Financial Sector Keeps Shrinking.”  Certainly, this type of article is important for those in the financial sector, like Corey Ribotsky.

The article states that, “In an effort to boost revenue, banks are shifting their focus back to bread-and-butter businesses, such as retail banking, brokerage services, and asset management. They are dusting off a once-favored strategy, cross-selling—persuading existing customers to buy additional products. Morgan Stanley has hired more than 170 private bankers to make loans and offer deposit products to its retail brokerage clients. Bank of America is looking to win banking business from the two-thirds of its Merrill Lynch customers who have bank accounts with other lenders. Wells Fargo is building its retail brokerage so that it can capture business from 5.2 million clients who hold $1.7 trillion in investment assets at other firms.”

In 2010, for instance, the Burlington Coat Factory became the first Light The Night Walk National Paper Balloon Partner.  They raised more than $2.5 million just in that one year for the Light The Night Walk.  Since they joined the Light the Night Walk in 2003, they have raised a total of $9.4 million for LLS!

This is one example of how organizations and individuals like Corey Ribotsky can help to raise funds for LLS and to encourage others to learn more about the important work done by the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
