Project REACh promotes financial inclusion through greater access to credit and capital. REACh stands for Roundtable for Economic Access and Change, and the project brings together leaders from the banking industry, national civil rights organizations, business, and technology to reduce specific barriers that prevent full, equal, and fair participation in the nation’s economy.
At the July 12, 2022 Project REACh Symposium, participants learned about actionable strategies to build measurable initiatives increasing economic and community development financing within economically disadvantaged communities.
Attendees represented OCC leadership, civil rights organizations, financial institutions, community development practitioners, and other key stakeholders focused on reducing economic challenges affecting minority communities.

The OCC recognizes that removing structural barriers to financial inclusion will result in broader participation in the economy and will help millions of people, previously left out of the system, to pursue their American dreams.
The Project REACh Pledge to Strengthen Minority Depository Institutions promotes the viability and preservation of minority depository institutions (MDI). We recognize the importance of MDIs within their communities.
