Connecting Communities: CDFIs Unpacked: Trends and Takeaways from Mission-Driven Lenders
September 25 @ 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm EDT
Every two years, the 12 Federal Reserve Banks survey community development financial institutions (CDFIs) about industry conditions. Join us to hear more about what they’ve shared, including
- how demand for CDFIs’ products and services changed over the past year and may evolve in the future,
- how CDFIs leverage public funding to accomplish their work, and
- what challenges CDFIs encountered in meeting demand and delivering on their mission.
In addition to the CDFI Survey, Federal Reserve Staff connect with community development lenders and financial institutions to better understand economic conditions for a broad range of consumers, individuals, and businesses. Attendees will hear more about this outreach, including how the Federal Reserve engages with local community development lenders and what we’ve learned from several CDFI success stories.
