The SIFAC platform was built on SCA’s unique involvement in the broader sustainable infrastructure finance market and direct client experience, including serving as the advisor to various Community Development Financial Institutions and Green Banks.
While SIFAC primarily serves community lenders including loan funds, credit unions, minority deposit institutions, banks, and green banks, it is also designed to support the full network of community-based organizations, project developers, municipalities, and more. Offering hands-on support and guidance to this diverse ecosystem is critical to accelerating the pace of project implementation.
