Our Presenters:

Benjamin M. Effinger, MPA

Benjamin Effinger, Operations Chief,  Cash Management Division,  Los Angeles County Treasurer and Tax Collector
When people ask me what I do for a living, after a short pause, my response is, “I make local government happen!” That is usually followed up by several questions along the lines of…"Well, how do you do that?" Let me explain... In my role as a senior manager in the nation’s largest municipal treasurer and tax collector, I make government happen by leading and strategically directing a team of public sector cash management professionals responsible for the #CashManagement and cash positioning operations for the County of Los Angeles. We are essentially the County's bank, maintaining banking services and relationships with all county departments, commissions, and treasury pool participants to ensure their financial needs are met to support their critical public service operations. Without my team and our services, these agencies would be forced to self-bank and would not have access to the network of resources available to an agency the size and scope of the County of Los Angeles.
