• Be listed in the Registry of Michigan Financial Institutions (the MBA “Blue Book”) that includes our associate member and affiliate member directory. Your organization may also purchase ad space in the “Blue Book.” When MBA members look for consultants, products, or services, they check the “Blue Book” first.
