CVNB Partners with Teslar Software

We are excited to announce our partnership with Cumberland Valley National Bank and Trust (CVNB)!

Headquartered in London, Kentucky, CVNB has proudly served their communities since 1904. The bank currently operates 15 locations across Kentucky and is the largest locally owned bank in the Laurel, Whitley, and Knox County markets. While continuing to grow their presence across the region, CVNB is committed to building strong relationships and providing personalized financial guidance grounded in the belief that A Caring Bank is a Better Bank.

As a CRE-focused community bank, CVNB’s growth strategy requires scalable systems and consistent processes that support both efficiency and accountability. With that goal in mind, the bank is partnering with Teslar to bring greater structure, visibility, and consistency to their lending operations.

“Big picture, we’re focused on the lending culture of our bank—how we handle paperwork, processes, and how we become more efficient as we grow,” said Tim Edwards, EVP, Senior Lender at CVNB. “There’s a natural flow we’d like to have in our operations, and we know that as we continue to grow, we have to bend and adapt. Teslar is part of that cultural shift for us.”

CVNB will implement Teslar in a phased approach, beginning with exception tracking. The expectation is for Teslar to become the system of record for exception tracking—replacing fragmented spreadsheets, exports, and manual processes with a centralized platform.

“Right now, much of our exception process is manual and requires constant oversight,” shared Lisa Robbins, Vice President at CVNB. “We’re looking forward to moving out of that scenario and into a more centralized, streamlined system.”

Once the Exceptions module is live and fully adopted, the bank plans to roll out Pipeline to improve visibility into loan activity earlier in the process and enhance coordination between lenders, credit, and loan operations.

We’re proud to partner with Cumberland Valley National Bank & Trust as they continue investing in their people, culture, and communities.
