Over the past year, The Government Finance Officers Association's “Putting Assets to Work” policy incubator, led by former mayor and Congressman Ben McAdams, worked alongside six local governments to assess opportunities and develop policy tools to adapt the Urban Wealth Fund concepts common in European and Asian cities for American jurisdictions. These funds can be incredibly valuable assets for local governments looking to unlock new revenue streams and tackle persistent challenges such as affordable housing and climate resilience.

In this webinar, you'll join Congressman McAdams and other Putting Assets to Work practitioners as they discuss this exciting new opportunity in local government finance.

Learning Objectives:

• Participants can better understand the potential of unlocking value from public real estate assets.
