SUMMARY:Co-operatives National Law in Queensland webinar
DESCRIPTION:Together with BAL Lawyers\, BCCM is hosting this webinar on Co-operatives National Law for Queensland co-operatives. \nMake sure your co-op is ready to make the most of the national co-operatives legislation when it commences in Queensland! \nNot to be missed\, this seminar will answer commonly asked questions such as: \n\nWhat are the key changes from the Cooperatives Act 1997 to CNL?\nHow do we change our co-op rules to benefit from these changes?\nA one hour seminar ideal for legal practitioners\, established co-operatives\, and groups looking to form co-operative businesses.\n\nThe Co-operatives National Law (CNL) is harmonised co-operatives legislation\, which has been progressively introduced by all states and territories since 2012. \nWith adoption in Queensland\, Queensland-based co-operatives can now take advantage of: \n\nAbility to trade across borders with no regulatory barriers\nNew small co-ops category for financial reporting requirements\nAbility to use Co-operative Capital Units for capital raising\nEmpower your co-operative or your co-operative clients to reap the benefits of the modernised CNL.\n\nWe hope to see you there! \nTotal run time: 1 hour\, including time for questions. \nSuitable for: co-operative directors\, secretaries and managers; lawyers\, accountants and other professional business advisors; anyone with an interest in starting or converting to a co-operative. \nTopics include: \n\nA brief overview of CNL\n\nKey changes for Queensland co-ops as a result of CNL\nCross-border trading\nDirectors duties\nDefinition of a small co-op\nCo-operative Capital Units\nUse of technology for governance processes\n\n\nHow to take advantage of the changes\n\nWhen are rule changes required?\nTips for reviewing and changing your rules\n\n\n\nEvent Details\nDate: Wednesday\, 12 August 2020 \nTime: 12.30 – 1.30 PM (AEST) \nCost: Free for BCCM members / $55 including GST for Non-BCCM members \nProgram at a Glance\nWelcomeMelina Morrison\, CEO\, BCCM \nSession One: Operating a Co-operativeKatie Innes\, BAL Lawyers \nThe first session will address the fundamentals for compliance in the operation of a co-operative. \nRegular meetings and adequate disclosure are fundamental to members and directors staying informed about the co-operative and the progress towards the co-operative’s goals. In this session you will learn how to call and hold meetings\, and the legislative requirements for holding meetings. The rules of the co-operative govern its operation so we will address what decisions of the co-operative require approval of a special resolution\, a postal ballot\, or a special postal ballot\, and how and when those changes will take effect. \nAll co-operative members must be active members\, but there are specific responsibilities imposed on directors for the day to day management of the co-operative so the appointment of the directors can be one of the most powerful decisions that members will make. We will look at the appointment and removal process for directors. \nWe will also look at the requirements for terminating membership\, particularly due to inactive or recalcitrant members and issues of liability. \nSession Two: Governance of the Co-operativeMark Love\, BAL Lawyers \nThe second session will be focused on the rights and responsibilities of the members and the directors; both have a different yet equally important role to play in the ongoing governance of the co-operative. \nWe will look at the rights\, responsibilities and the liabilities of members\, including how and when they can vote\, what members must do to maintain their active membership\, and the financial risks that membership can bring. \nWe will also look at the role of the director\, the scope of directors duties under the Co-operatives National Law\, and their liability to and on behalf of the co-operative. \nWe will also discuss the application of the Co-operative and Mutual Enterprise Governance Principles recently published by the BCCM. \nSession Three: Raising FundsMark Love\, BAL Lawyers \nThe third session will be focused on fund raising mechanisms for the ongoing operation of the co-operative including the use of shares\, debentures\, and co-operative capital units. \nWe will look at the defining characteristics of each and when each one is appropriate for the co-operative. Critical in this will be interaction of the Co-operatives National Law and Chapter 6D of the Corporations Act. We will also touch on the process for issuing co-operative securities and the rights and liabilities attaching to those\, as well as issues of “influence”. \nSession Four: Winding UpKatie Innes\, BAL Lawyers \nTo wind up the day we will address the process for winding up a co-operative. We will look at when the members can voluntarily wind up the co-operative and the process they must go through to do so. We will also look at the situations in which the Registrar can wind up the co-operative under the Co-operatives National Law. And finally\, issues of residual liability for membership. \nClosing RemarksMelina Morrison\, CEO\, BCCM

SUMMARY:Credit ratings and capital markets
DESCRIPTION:Free webinar for BCCM Members \nLed by Daniel Yu\, Vice President – Senior Analyst\, Financial Institutions at Moody’s \nAccess to capital is becoming increasingly important for Australian mutual banks\, with the sector’s historically strong capitalisation under pressure from rising credit losses and risk-weighted densities. Meanwhile\, technological developments are driving a structural shift in customer demand for digital services and products\, with new entrants competing for market share. Intensifying competition will lead the mutuals to increase their spending on technology\, and in turn pressure net interest margins and weaken their ability to generate sufficient capital organically. \nJoin Daniel as he explains Moody’s approach to rating mutuals as well as credit consideration for mutual capital instruments (MCIs)\, and how the sector’s strengths and weakness are reflecting in ratings. \nBCCM members are entitled to access this program free of charge. \nPlease contact BCCM to register for this webinar and to access past event videos in the members’ section of this site.

SUMMARY:The Co-operatives and Mutuals Strategic Development Program (CMSDP)
DESCRIPTION:Perth – 24-26 August 2020 \nOffered through AIM WA UWA Business School Executive Education\, this three day program has been designed by Winthrop Professor Tim Mazzarol following extensive research into the needs of co-operative and mutual organisations. BCCM members can access a special rate of $1\,788 which incorporates a 20% discount\, an accommodation allowance of $250\, and an airfare allowance of $250. This rate is for BCCM members only and is not generally transferrable. \nThe Program can be run in “bespoke” versions for co-operative and mutual enterprises (CMEs)\, including agricultural co-ops\, to assist their boards and members to fully understand not only what a CME is and why it has a unique business model\, but to examine how they can either build new co-ops that have the right foundations strategically rather than just compliant with legislation\, or to innovate their existing business model. The emphasis is on applied strategic thinking and application of strategic management principles. The entire course has been developed from in-depth research at an international level\, into the CME business model. \nThis course is assessed as Adept level and will require participants to have some knowledge and experience of the co-operative business model. \nYou can also contact Dr Steve Brown\, Manager\, AIM WA+UWA Business School Executive Education on 0413 802 702 or email sbrown@execed.com.au to discuss how the program could be customised for your CME. \nExpress your interest to attend future face to face Co-operatives and mutuals strategic development program

SUMMARY:Co-operative Conversations: Episode 6
DESCRIPTION:Episode 6  Part 1: Interview – Reclaiming market power: from competitors to collaborators\n6.30 pm –  7.15 pm AEST – Interview \nThe Limestone Coast Fishermen’s Co-op is locally owned and operated by 27 local fishing family businesses. Just two years old\, it started out of necessity and is growing to become a very important part of its local community. \nSouthern Rock Lobster is South Australia’s largest wild catch fishery by value\, producing 1539 tonnes valued at $136 million. The co-op began when a group of crayfish fishermen from across South East South Australia’s Limestone Coast saw a need to proactively address the structural change occurring in their industry. They strongly believe their move to a co-operative structure has not only loosened the grip of corporately-owned factories and processors on their local seafood industry\, it has also brought longer term benefits for the smaller\, generational fishing families and their coastal towns and communities. \nThis took collaboration in order to combine their supply volume and power and access the export and global markets they could not reach alone. They pooled their resources into a business they now own together. \nThey have been successful and are now growing with support from other co-ops like the Geraldton Fisherman’s Co-op. They recently secured  $348\,000 from the PIRSA Regional Growth Fund (RGF) to develop a facility in Beachport which\, combined with their existing facility in Port MacDonnell\, will see the holding capacity of live Rock Lobster increase by around 10 tonnes across both processing locations. \nHear about the many barriers they have had to overcome\, and how they learned to trust each other enough to pool their capital and the benefit it has had on their local community. All this when Pete Lewis interviews Limestone Coast Fishermen’s Co-op founding member and inaugural Chair Rodger Long in this unique livestream episode of Co-operative Conversations. \nWatch on demand \nEpisode 6 Part 2: Roundtable – Breaking the mould: How small producers can gain power and position by working together\n7.45 pm –  8.45 pm AEST – Roundtable discussion \nDuring this roundtable we examine how some of Australia’s most interesting co-operatives have rethought how they do business by smaller businesses joining forces and increasing their yields\, the role of strategic partnerships\, maximising returns and competing on a global scale. \nThis was about businesses coming together to create scale\, compete with the corporates and access markets they couldn’t reach on their own\, and the panel will explore how to make such collaborative cohesion work. What are the processes they need to put in place? How do they make co-operative working fair and equitable? How has it enabled them to compete on the world stage? What kind of improvements have they seen in their own businesses? And what happens when it all goes wrong? \nRoundtable guests include: \n\nJustin Phillips – Assisting Consultant/Secretary\,  Limestone Coast Fisherman’s Co-operative\nDanielle Adams – Chief Executive Officer\, Clarence River Fisherman’s Co-operative\nGreg Wall – Former Group CEO of Capricorn Society and Director of the International Co-operative Alliance\nMelina Morrison – Chief Executive Officer\, BCCM\n\nWatch on demand \nJoin Pete Lewis for an inspiring interview series as he explores the journeys of some of Australia’s most interesting and successful co-operatives.
