About LOMA Societies

LOMA Societies provide Society members, LOMA students, and other financial services professionals with opportunities for continuing education and professional development.

As a financial services professional, you want a career that is both challenging and rewarding. LOMA Societies provide a great way to achieve that goal.

Today’s LOMA Societies have evolved out of the 40+ FLMI Societies that have been formed since 1943. Although most Societies have long-granted associate membership to all LOMA designees (not just FLMIs), these associate members did not enjoy all the rights of membership, such as voting and holding office. In 2003 the Society Committee decided to extend full membership rights to beyond only FLMI and FFSI designation holders and to change the Societies’ names to reflect the broader participation.

Societies were formed with the following objectives in mind:

  • Promoting continuing professional education

  • Fostering recognition of LOMA designations

  • Assisting others to earn LOMA designations 

  • Encouraging professional, educational, and social relations among LOMA designees, students, and other financial services professionals

Benefits You Will Enjoy by Joining a LOMA Society
  • Make valuable contacts
  • Hear the latest in industry trends from speakers at Society functions
  • Gain valuable insights into how other companies operate
  • Enjoy contributing to your community through Society sponsored community service projects
Activities You Will Enjoy with Your LOMA Society
Most Societies:
  • Hold three or four dinner or luncheon meetings a year. Upcoming meetings are listed on the Society Calendar and usually feature a speech on a topic of current interest in the financial services industry and a session regarding Society business.
  • Offer an annual seminar or workshop.
  • Sponsor review classes for LOMA examinations when classes are not offered by local companies.
  • Mentor LOMA students on a one-on-one basis, offering advice and encouragement to students pursuing the designation.
  • Work with area colleges to obtain credits for LOMA courses completed.
  • Honor new LOMA designation holders by hosting a recognition banquet (a boon for companies unable to offer recognition programs on their own). 
  • Create good will for the financial services industry through involvement in community outreach and charitable programs.
