Banking Under the Mattress: Financial Literacy and Unbanked New Yorkers THE NEW SCHOOL | www.newschool.edu A new FDIC study finds that seven of every 20 New York households is underbanked. In most cases, these are low-income, minority, and single-parent households that either have no bank accounts or rely heavily on alternative financial services such as payday lenders and pawn shops.

New York and other cities and states are experimenting with solutions, including low- or no-fee community banking services and financial literacy campaigns. What works? And what should government, nonprofits, and the banking sector do now? Panel includes Jonathan Mintz, commissioner of the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs, presenting new data on the underbanked in New York; Cathie Mahon, executive director of the NYC Office of Financial Empowerment; Deyanira Del Rio, associate director of the Neighborhood Economic Development Advocacy Project (NEDAP); Edward Kramer, executive vice president of Wolters Kluwer Financial Services; and Leslie Parrish, senior researcher at the Center for Responsible Lending. Dean Starkman, managing editor of the Columbia Journalism Reviews The Audit, moderates. Supported by the Sirus Fund and the Milano Foundation.

He discusses at length: (a) the excessive risk undertaken by a variety of financial institutions as a result of gradual deregulation of financial services sector in the second half of 20th century; (b) the role of both Republican and Democratic parties in maintaining deregulation policies following introduction of US President Ronald Reagan’s “free markets” ideology in 1980; (c) the inability of the US to properly manage or channel massive capital inflows from the developing world – especially China – during the last decade; (d) the failure of Bush administration to mount an adequate response to the financial crisis on account of its initial state of denial, financial engineering mindset, and “free markets” ideology; and (e) actions – such as, interest rate increases, deficit reduction, recapitalization of banks, and economic stimulus – that would have greatly mitigated the severity of the financial crisis.
