A report on JPMorgan Chase’s investment strategy in Detroit. The bank targeted Detroit after the city filed for bankruptcy, in an attempt to explore philanthropic investment strategy aimed at addressing urban poverty. Chase shared the same financial analytics used to advise corporations with the municipal government of Detroit, encouraging the government to seek efficient solutions to urban problems. The first project was to catalogue abandoned properties and invest to convert them into affordable housing units. Other investors were involved with development of downtown, so Chase focused on the most run down neighborhoods. As their program has grown, they have worked with over 5,000 local businesses and non-profit organizations, steering loans towards minority entrepreneurs who may not otherwise qualify. Chase is expanding the program to Chicago and Washington D.C. Includes interviews with Mike Duggan, Mayor of Detroit; and Sonya Mays, CEO of the Housing Partnership Network.
