Our co-founder and co-CEO, Samir Goel, recently spoke with American Banker about how technology, like AI, can be leveraged to close the racial wealth gap. Samir shares that AI systems must be ethically developed, regularly audited for biases, and regulated to prioritize fairness and inclusivity in financial services. Esusu is working to bridge the racial wealth gap by providing financial opportunities to the previously credit-invisible through rent reporting.

In honor of Juneteenth, our founder Wemimo Abbey, and Operation HOPE Chairman John Hope Bryant joined Romaine Bostick, CFA and Scarlet Fu on Bloomberg Markets: The Close to talk about the ripple effects financial literacy can have within our communities and the nation as a whole. "This is a moment in history that harks back to after the Civil War when Abraham Lincoln created the Free Man's Bank to teach freed slaves about money before he was killed. So most people never even learned financial literacy basics. Today, financial literacy is a national epidemic, but it hits people on the lower end of the financial spectrum harder." "In my opinion, this national security issue. We have military men and women, 55% of which do not have adequate financial literacy and when we think about the 2008 financial crisis, a lot of people said they were not financially literate. At Esusu, one of the biggest demands we see is how can we try as much as possible to level the playing field and give people the financial knowledge they need to live their financial best."

Wishing you a day of reflection and renewal.  “…Juneteenth, the day we celebrate the end of slavery, the day we memorialize those who offered us hope for the future and the day when we renew our commitment to the struggle for freedom.” – Angela Davis | Author & Political Activist
