SUMMARY:Balancing the Stack: Affordable Housing Finance Forum
DESCRIPTION:Affordable housing projects in the Midwest face serious challenges. Developers struggle to find enough financing\, deal with complex regulations\, and manage rising construction costs. These barriers make it hard for projects to “pencil out” financially\, adding to the shortage of affordable homes. \n\n\n\nThe Affordable Housing Finance Forum is your chance to connect with developers\, investors\, lenders\, policymakers\, and community leaders to address one of our region’s most pressing challenges: blending multiple streams of funding to build more affordable housing. \n\n\n\nThe forum’s agenda comes from the Kansas City Fed’s ongoing outreach to affordable-housing stakeholders. It addresses key challenges and opportunities they’ve identified in affordable housing finance. You will connect with experts on housing market trends and policy solutions during our plenary sessions\, then dive into break-out sessions on critical financing and development topics. \n\n\n\nWhether you’re a developer\, lender\, investor\, policymaker\, philanthropist\, or researcher\, this conference offers valuable perspectives and connections to advance your work. \n\n\n\nSpace is limited — secure your spot now. \n\n\n\nRegistration deadline: October 30\, 2026 \n\n\n\nWho should attend?\n\n\n\n\n\nAffordable housing developers (for-profit\, not-for-profit)\n\n\n\nAffordable housing financers (banks\, CDFIs\, investors)\n\n\n\nGovernment leaders (local\, state\, federal\, tribal)\n\n\n\nPhilanthropic organizations\n\n\n\nCommunity-based organizations\n\n\n\nHousing researchers\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation

SUMMARY:Making Missing Markets: Catalyzing Capital and Igniting Innovation
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, November 18\, 2026\, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York will host a hybrid event as part of the Making Missing Markets Initiative\, an effort to foster and improve markets channeling investments into under-resourced communities.   \n\n\n\nInvestments to improve communities’ economic opportunities across sectors are typically fragmented. Moreover\, they fail to attract private capital at a scale commensurate with the size of the problem. The Making Missing Markets Initiative seeks to change this dynamic and improve well-being across all communities\, especially low- and moderate-income communities. \n\n\n\nThis event will include speakers and panelists who are developing new business models that better address the root causes of communities’ challenges. This event will be of interest to leaders in finance\, philanthropy\, community development\, and academia\, and anyone else interested in creating new markets aimed at fostering opportunity-rich communities.  \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAudience\n\n\n\nThis event is open to the public.  \n\n\n\nMedia\n\n\n\nThis event is open to the media.
