Transforming Communities: Driving and Assessing Investment, a collaboration between the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC), will gather senior leaders from across the nonprofit, public, and private sectors in the Federal Reserve’s Second District to discuss the crucial role of community development finance in driving the transformation of under-resourced communities.
The conference will first take an introspective look at existing investment vehicles and the assessment of their impact, and then tackle ways by which the field’s current successes can be replicated. Speakers will also address the future of community development finance and how the ecosystem will evolve to achieve the ultimate goal of community transformation.
