CDFI Fund Advance Look: Preview the Revisions to the New CDFI Certification Application
In May 2020, the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund (CDFI Fund) requested public comment on the application and reporting requirements for Certified Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs). The CDFI industry overwhelmingly responded and submitted 55 letters with over 600 unique comments to proposed changes to the CDFI Fund’s Certification Application and Annual Certification and Data Collection Report (ACR), as well as its data collection mechanisms. Over the past two years, the CDFI Fund has spent considerable time reviewing and considering these comments and suggestions.
