SHF Holdings, Inc. CEO Sundie Seefried Receives The Green Market Report Cannabis Finance Award for Top CEO

GOLDEN, Colo., Aug. 04, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SHF Holdings, Inc., d/b/a/ Safe Harbor Financial (“Safe Harbor” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SHFS), a leader in facilitating banking, payments, and financial services to the regulated cannabis industry, announced today that its Chief Executive Officer, Sundie Seefried, has won The Green Market Report Cannabis Finance Award for Top CEO. The Green Market Report Cannabis Finance Awards honor individuals and companies who play critical roles in a complicated aspect of the cannabis industry.

As former CEO of Partner Colorado Credit Union (PCCU), Sundie Seefried has been in the credit union space for 39 years. She founded Safe Harbor in 2015 because she saw how unsafe the conditions were for cannabis businesses without access to banking in Colorado. Under her direction, she took Safe Harbor public on the Nasdaq and advanced its mission to normalize both depository and lending services through the Company’s unique fintech platform. Seefried is widely recognized for setting the standards in the banking world that remain relevant today as banks and credit unions across the country adapt to support evolving industry needs.

Fred Niehaus, Chairman of the Board for Safe Harbor commented, “Beyond Sundie’s exceptional ability to establish Safe Harbor as today’s most recognized leader in providing reliable access to financial services to cannabis related businesses, she is helping to create the financial landscape for the cannabis industry for its continued success. Her many years of providing cannabis banking education and expertise to legislators, regulators, attorney generals, state officials and financial institutions has proven invaluable as she is successfully advancing Safe Harbor as a newly public company poised to lead the future of a very complex industry.”
