Bank of Colorado investment Services is the Logan County Chamber of Commerce Business of the Week. Receiving the honor are Tim Edgar, Financial Advisor and Karen Daniel, Sales Assistant.
.....Two stories; one great team!
.....Bank of Colorado had a vision to become a "one-stop" full-service bank. And with the help of Matthew Varney, the Bank of Colorado partnered with Raymond James Financial Services in 2000 to be able to provide customers with a financial services department to offer a wide array of products and services.
.....Both firms have a very conservative (fiscally) mindset. Although Raymond James is publicly traded (NYSE: RJF), and Bank of Colorado is not, it was a very good fit. .....Bank of Colorado is about helping customers meet their financial goals. They are family owned and community Focused. The communities they are a part of make them who they are. That started back in 1900 and continues earning people’s trust today. In 1978, they became a part of a larger family of local banks started by the Dinsdale family, running their bank much like they ran their farms.
.....Much like the family presence in the banks’ history, so it is with the Investment team. Matthew Varney, Branch Manager & Financial Advisor, managed the investment division for 17 years before retiring, and now his son Patrick Varney, Branch Manager & Financial Advisor, continues to expand the team in Colorado.
.....In 2018, they rebranded themselves as Bank of Colorado Investment Services. Today, there are 14 financial advisors serving 33 branches across the state. Strong rapport and open communication between the bank team and the investment services teams is required for the success of the partnership built on a model of local, loyal teamwork.
.....Sterling is one of the first branches to provided full-fledged financial services. In 2016, Tim Edgar, Financial Advisor, was brought on to represent the financial services team for this area. In 2017, Tim expanded his business when supporting the Holyoke branch on a part time basis as well.
.....In 2018, Sales Assistant, Karen Daniel joined Tim’s team. Although she was not new to Bank of Colorado Investment Services, as she was hired in 2008 to support the Financial Advisor in Brush and now spends time between both the Brush and Sterling branches. Together, this team has grown the client base by 200%, and the assets under management by 400%.
.....Bank of Colorado Investment Services sheds light in the area of finance through education and goal planning/monitoring. When an entrepreneur, farmer, or rancher experience a business transition; a family dynamic (and size) changes; or an employee scales back from the office, it is time to re-evaluate the financial plans. .....Tim loves hearing your story and identifying with your goals-both long-term and more immediate. They will customize and implement your financial plan, ensuring it develops with you-regardless of which life stage you find yourself in.
..... Well-established plans need local, ongoing review to accommodate life’s unplanned changes and interruptions. To determine if this would be a benefit to you or your business, please read more at www.raymondjames.com/timedgar.

Resources For Small Businesses
Federal Stimulus
The new federal stimulus provides additional support for small businesses impacted by the pandemic, especially restaurants and entertainment venues. This round of “Paycheck Protection Program” (PPP), can go to any businesses that show a loss in revenue of 25% or more from at least one quarter of 2020 as compared to that same quarter in 2019. The funding available for businesses is calculated by finding the average monthly payroll in 2019 and then multiplying it by 2.5, meaning 2.5 months of payroll expenses. The new law provides even more help for restaurants through a special provision that gives these businesses a PPP amount equal to 3.5 months of average monthly payroll costs. We anticipate that Colorado businesses can gain access to billions of dollars in funding via these programs. The timing for the availability of this round of PPP loans has not been announced by the Small Business Administration (SBA). Please visit the OEDIT website listed above for updates as information becomes available and more details on this round of PPP loans and other federal stimulus program. The new law also creates a simplified one-page forgiveness application for PPP loans of under $150,000 and allows expenses covered by PPP loans to be tax deductible. A $600 stimulus is part of Congress’ most recent bipartisan stimulus package and have already begun hitting bank accounts. Individuals with an adjusted gross income of up to $75,000 a year on their 2019 tax return will qualify for the $600 and couples earning up to $150,000 will qualify for $1,200 total. The credit phases out for individuals earning above $75,000 but below $100,000. There is also a $600 payment for each qualifying child. .................................. Payment
Unemployment Insurance
Housing and Utilities Assistance
During this year’s special session, we collaborated with bipartisan legislators in the General Assembly to allocate an additional $54 million in housing assistance through the Department of Local Affairs (DOLA). For more information on DOLA’s housing programs and to access support for your rent or mortgage, visit their website. We also allocated $5 million to Energy Outreach Colorado to help Coloradans with utility assistance. Visit their website for more information on how to access those funds. You can also find more information on other programs serving our state, such as County Housing Authorities, the Colorado Low Income Energy Assistance, and more.
Food Assistance
During this pandemic, 1 in 3 Coloradans aren’t sure where their next meal is coming from. I’m proud that during the special session earlier this year we awarded $5 million to the Food Pantry Assistance Program in the Colorado Department of Human Services (CDHS). If you’re experiencing food insecurity, learn more about food assistance programs from the CDHS, Food Bank of the Rockies, and others serving the people of Colorado. Organizations looking to help their communities address hunger and food access issues, can apply for assistance with the Emergency Hunger Relief Fund
