Created by UFSC Member Michael Holman Sr.
The Urban Financial Services
Coalition – New York (UFSCNY) formerly The Urban Bankers Coalition, Inc. (UBC),
was founded in New York City in 1971. UFSCNY is a non-profit organization of
professionals in the financial services industry.
UFSCNY is the founding chapter of the
Urban Financial Services
Coalition (UFSC), formerly the
National Association of Urban Bankers. Urban Financial Services Coalition (UFSC)
was formed in 1974, and is comprised of 50 chapters
throughout the United States and Canada.
Prior to its founding, the
extracurricular professional needs of minority banking professionals were met
through local and autonomous banking groups. However, when bankers from
different parts of the country began to discover the value of information
sharing among associates from city to city, they organized local chapters into a
national network under the umbrella of the National Association of Urban
Bankers.
In 2001, the organization's
name was officially changed to the Urban Financial Services Coalition. There are
approximately 50 chapters of UFSC throughout the United States and Canada, with
the New York chapter as the largest. In 2003, Urban Bankers Coalition, Inc.
changed its name to Urban Financial Services Coalition - New York.
Our membership includes
professionals, representing areas of expertise ranging from investment banking,
to technology, financial services and commercial back office operations, as well
as entrepreneurs. As participants in the private sector, we strive to have a
positive impact on the changes in our community through educational and
scholarship programs, community activities, and mentoring opportunities.
Recent local sponsors include:
Amalgamated Bank, The Bank of New York, Citigroup, Federal Reserve Bank of New
York, FleetBoston Financial, Goldman Sachs & Co., JPMorgan Chase, HSBC Bank USA,
