CNote helps institutions invest capital into underserved communities at scale. CNote's deposit programs create jobs, fund BIPOC-owned small businesses and support affordable housing.

CNote

Invest In Women

CNote gives corporations, institutions and individuals a simple, effective way to invest in under-resourced communities at scale. The women-led technology platform deploys corporate cash into loan funds and insured deposit products at impact-driven community financial institutions that advance economic equality, racial justice, gender equity and climate change initiatives.

Corporate leaders including Apple, Mastercard, Patagonia, PayPal and Netflix use CNote’s platform to advance their diversity, equity and inclusion goals by authentically supporting low-income communities and communities of color. They earn returns comparable to what conventional products yield—while providing essential capital to minority depository institutions (MDIs), community development financial institutions (CDFIs), low-income designated (LID) credit unions and other impact finance organizations. Individuals can also invest through the platform to support an economy that works for everyone.

CNote founders Catherine Berman, CEO, and Yuliya Tarasava, COO, launched CNote in 2016 with a mission to close the wealth gap through financial innovation. Based in Oakland, California, CNote is a Certified B Corporation and is GIIRS rated.

In today’s rapidly changing financial landscape, the phrase “we mean now” has taken on new significance. The demand for next-day liquidity is no longer a niche requirement but has become the common currency for corporate treasurers and financial managers. This shift is driven by market uncertainty, economic volatility, and the need for businesses to maintain flexibility and resilience.

From a personal standpoint, I love when NeuGroup is able to have a wonderful member host us in NYC. This time, a huge thank you to Cognizant for hosting at the Hudson Yards offices for the Cash Investments H2 2024 Meeting on September 25th to 26th. 

In partnership with CNote, R. Seelaus & Co., Inc., and Institutional Cash Distributors (ICD).

During an absolutely historic moment for interest rates decisions and major macro-pressures. NeuGroup members will share and learn on various strategies deployed, as well as work with our sponsor-partners on deploying cash with liquidity in mind. 

Building on last year's NYC meeting at BlackRock, the theme for H2 2024, looks to be "Capital preservation. Capital preservation. And finally, capital preservation." https://lnkd.in/e93e5wsQ

The Just Economy Institute Community is strong. Today, I had the pleasure of collaborating with Ken Tsunoda and David Kenney to host a panel where we explored how everyday impact investors can leverage their banking relationships to drive social change. The conversation centered around one powerful idea: how we can use the power of our cash to unlock the social impact we care about.

Grateful for our esteemed panelists: Melissa Widen and First Women's Bank, Catherine Berman and CNote and Keisha B. and Self-Help Credit Union. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.

In the 2nd video of our series with Jeffrey Whitford, Vice President of Sustainability & Social Business Innovation at MilliporeSigma, the Life Science business of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany, Jeffrey shares his positive experience of what it is like to work with CNote on a day to day basis! 

#sustainability #finance #impact #impactinvesting #FDIC #NCUA

Tremendous appreciation to Jeffrey Whitford and MilliporeSigma for your leadership and for exemplifying what corporations can do to drive forward meaningful, measurable positive impact.

If only 25 large corporations moved less than 1% of their average cash holdings into community banks and credit unions, it would support an estimated ONE MILLION individuals who are struggling right now.

That includes supporting families struggling to find a place to live, entrepreneurs trying to launch their small business dreams, and Communities of Color disproportionately affected by climate change.

Make no mistake, deposits are a powerful tool. 

If you’re curious how corporations are using their deposits to invest in the causes and communities their employees and customers care about, take a moment to read Sustainability Leader, Jeffrey Whitford's post below. It’s more straightforward than you might think, and more impactful than you might know.
