CDSF increases an understanding of money and finance through education and research. Our work advances an understanding of
- How our economy works
- Money and banking and how they work together
- How investing works (what investors need to know)
- How borrowing works (what borrowers need to know)
- Credit ratings (what they are and why we should understand them)
- Social finance
In developing a social investing loan fund ... I've gone to CDSF to understand the landscape, structures and processes of the financial world.
