This talk presented a critical analysis of the social finance industry, a marketplace for profitable investments that are also branded as ways of using finance “ethically” to solve social problems. As social finance gains influence in American public policy and with high net worth financial investors, the talk used case studies in Michigan and California to illustrate how it is shifting the governance of welfare and poverty in poor neighbourhoods and communities.
