Equity opportunities in action.
CORE began with deposits in four CDFIs in fall 2020.
Since that time we have expanded the program's scope
by developing partnerships and sharing expertise with
multicultural stakeholders. In addition, we invested in
Trident, an institutional asset manager that supports
underserved small businesses in the U.S., particularly
in Black communities.
We intend to continue expanding the program over
the coming years and look forward to taking specific
measures to engage, empower and invest in
underserved communities.

Moody's 2021 Stakeholder Sustainability Report

"Having the right partnerships with organizations like Moody's
allows Trident to identify and invest in Main Street small
businesses, where other firms may not believe opportunities
exist. The result is better returns for investors, better outcomes
for underserved communities, and better chances for overlooked
entrepreneurs to achieve the American Dream."
