U.S. Bank, Enterprise Community Partners announce innovative racial equity bond - Seite 2

“U.S. Bank is a strong supporter of CDFIs, which play an incredibly important role in financing entrepreneurs and small businesses that traditionally have been left out or underserved because of systemic inequities,” said Zack Boyers, president and CEO of U.S. Bancorp Community Development Corporation, the tax credit and community development subsidiary of U.S. Bank. “We’ve helped ensure more than $450 million in capital was available to CDFIs and their customers – the majority of that just in the last four years – and we look forward to continued collaboration to help build thriving communities.”
