Wall Street Without Walls Description

What We Are Doing

Mission
Wall Street Without Walls (WSWW) mission is to coordinate and facilitate volunteer investment banking and capital markets services to non-profit organizations and public agencies to improve economic conditions in low-and-moderate income communities in the US.

Volunteer Expertise is the New Philanthropy
WSWW offers services to municipalities, community development financial institutions, and similar for-profit and non-profit organizations through volunteer financial technical assistance (FTA) teams. The volunteer expertise for these teams is provided by WSWW volunteers, who are senior and retired Wall Street investment banking professionals with backgrounds in municipal finance, real estate, corporate finance, emerging markets, and structured finance. Volunteers are asked to participate in up to six conference calls in a twelve-month period. In addition to our core business of providing pro-bono FTA teams, WSWW continues to be a leader in convening and training leaders in community development finance and sharing innovations to bring the industry to scale and efficiently access the private and public capital markets.

Events and Convenings
WSWW trains and convenes community development finance practitioners to access market rate capital, run efficient lending operations and maximize scarce financial resources with private investment and institutional market capital. WSWW has trained more than 1,000 community finance leaders in the latest tools and developments in community development finance.

Consulting
The financial technical assistance provided by our conference calls help our partners structure their deals and understand the pros and cons of a particular approach. If an organization needs additional guidance, on-the-ground support, or execution assistance, Wall Street Without Walls and our network of consultants can provide custom solutions.
