Jaime Gloshay discusses how her early experiences at a CDFI revealed the nuances of financial trauma and distrust within communities towards traditional financial institutions.
She emphasizes that the existing underwriting frameworks, like the 5Cs of Credit, fail to account for the unique needs and experiences of Black, Indigenous, and POC communities.
The five Rs of Rematriation—revolutionary, regenerative, restorative, rooted, and relational—were developed to promote more equitable financial systems that support marginalized communities.
Gloshay argues that traditional metrics, such as credit scores, are inadequate in assessing the character and potential of communities that lack financial literacy and resources.
