Andrew Rupf - Candidate for the Board (2014)

Nominee running for one of two (2) at-large positions:

Mr. Andrew Rupf has been actively involved in the Credit Union Movement, mortgage brokering, and banking sector for over 15 years. He has an excellent knowledge of the mortgage industry and his experiences have touched on many aspects within the industry including lending, strategy, and computing technology.

Mr. Rupf is a familiar face to many members at Ukrainian Credit Union Limited. He served 3 terms on UCU’s Credit Committee starting back in 2001. Since his credit committee days, he has continued staying involved with UCU, albeit in a less formal capacity. Andrew has routinely been spotted at UCU branches on Saturday mornings chatting with staff and members on all things UCU.

During his days as a mortgage broker, Mr. Rupf worked with many families and real estate investors in obtaining mortgages for their homes and properties. He also assisted businesses with their financing needs. He knows intimately the difference between an average and an exceptional mortgage experience. He wants to ensure that all members (and future members) are always treated to an exceptional mortgage experience.

Never shy in sharing insights and experiences, Mr. Rupf has routinely been invited to speak at conferences and seminars on mortgage strategies and software technology in the banking industry. He is especially sought after for his expert knowledge in group mortgage benefits.

Given the prominence that technology is now playing in the operation of UCU and the industry at large, Mr. Rupf’s knowledge and most recent experience in this area will be of value for UCU’s membership. In his current position as Senior Business Consultant at IBM Canada, he has led teams in implementing back office software systems for several large banks and financial institutions.

Mr. Rupf holds both a Professional Engineering license and a mortgage broker license within the province of Ontario. He graduated from the University of Toronto with a Bachelor of Applied Science in computer engineering. He has also completed the Credit Union Director Achievement (Level A) course.

Mr. Rupf looks forward to serving the members of Ukrainian Credit Union Limited.
