This factsheet offers a four-step guide for corporate initiatives to alleviate the racial wealth gap. We explore how these initiatives need to articulate the mechanisms and pathways that can build wealth for people of color, understand the starting conditions, and define success. We leverage the case study of U.S. Bank’s Access Commitment™ to illustrate how corporate initiatives can undertake this work.
