Municipality Credit Insecurity Roundtable
August 18, 2026
9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
Federal Reserve Bank of Boston
New England public and private sector organizations gathered to discuss potential municipal solutions to credit insecurity—the inability of households to access affordable, mainstream credit and stay current on debt payments.
Participants from community development organizations, municipalities, housing authorities, and financial coaching organizations shared anecdotal information and highlighted possible innovative market solutions for expanding credit access. Their insights offered valuable perspective for the field and ongoing Federal Reserve System work on credit access.
This event was by invitation only.
