WASHINGTON, Aug. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --?"Premier event for cannabis banking and compliance professionals, the 5th Annual PBC Conference, takes place next week in Washington, D.C."

This highly anticipated two-day conference marks a significant milestone as it celebrates its fifth anniversary. PBC brings together leading executives and professionals in the cannabis banking industry, along with experts in compliance, legislation, regulation, and various ancillary industries.

PBC's annual conference is recognized for bringing government and industry leaders together. Past participants have included State Cannabis Regulators, Banking Regulators, IRS Commissioners, former U.S. Deputy Attorney General, Senators, Members of Congress, and other federal and state regulators and legislators.

PBC 2024 will draw a crowd of 500+ executives and influential thought leaders to Washington, D.C. for two days of networking and discussing critical topics, including, seed-to-sale tracking, cannabis data management, 280E tax compliance, HR & payroll services, insurance, and more.

The 5th Anniversary conference will take the audience back to its roots, with keynote talks from cannabis operators sharing their insights on the industry's future, providing attendees with a unique perspective on where the industry is headed.

In addition to the event, PBC continues to emphasize the importance of ongoing education for professionals in the field. Attendees and members of the PBC Community are encouraged to deepen their knowledge through the PBC Certification Program. This program establishes a standardized baseline of knowledge for bankers and compliance professionals, to meet the industry's demand for qualified talent.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
