Financial Services Pipeline Initiative

The Financial Services Pipeline (FSP) Initiative is a collaboration of financial organizations and The Chicago Community Trust — the region's community foundation — whose goals include:

• Increasing the representation of Latinos and African-Americans, at all levels, in the Chicago area financial services industry, and (this is the mission/goals of FSP collectively across the financial services industry)
• Improving the overall cultural competency within the Chicago area financial services industry.

The FSP Initiative was founded in 2013 as a collaborative fund of The Chicago Community Trust by a group of financial institutions headquartered in Chicago.

The FSP Initiative members today collectively represent leaders and professionals in Chicagoland’s financial services industry. The members of the FSP Initiative have committed to participate in joint research, pool and align their resources, and develop an action plan to address the Initiative’s goals.
